Time Fades Away: The Songs of Neil Young

Second Sunset Presents:

John Hewitt & the New Americans in "Time Fades Away: The Songs of Neil Young"

John Hewitt is often consiered the hardest working musician in Alberta and certinaly the most prolific. On average releasing 2-3 albums per year and touring over 150 dates in the road he is what we call a work horse. Inspired by great songwriters such as Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Van Morrison and John Lennon you'll hear all of those influences in this Edmonton supergroup. John is also the producer of shows (Picking Up the Pieces: The Songs of Gordon Lightfoot, The Life and Times of Jim Croce) as well as the frontman to this great Albertan project.

Join him and his allstar band in an intimate evening of song celebrating the works of Canadian icon Neil Young.

What folks are saying about John Hewitt:

"Dedicated simply doesn't do Hewitt justice""-Americana UK

"With artfully crafted songs, masterful musicianship and humbled authenticity, John Hewitt is the full package and the real deal."- Rhea March, CJSR

"A very gifted artist"-Tony King, CKUA

"One of the hardest working musicians in Alberta"- Tom Coxworth, Folk Routes CKUA

"He's so prolific that even his recent record is no longer a recent record!"-Oskar Zybart, CKUA

"It’s rare for a musician to maintain a prodigious output from year to year, and even rarer to have two releases within a year and have both of them be highly acclaimed, yet that’s exactly what John Hewitt pulled off in 2023. Hewitt’s "Broken Rebels" and "Wonderlust" are among the year’s best releases"- Chad Huculak, Edmonton Journal

"Reading Hewitt’s lyrics, one repeatedly encounters a poetic storyteller."-Fish Griwkowsky, Edmonton Journal
