After dates in Kingston and London, Ontario, the concert tour will dip down into the northeastern U.S. market.

The North American tour will continue with a western U.S. swing, including an Oct. 17 date at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles with Los Lobos, before ending with a Bridgeport, Conn., concert with Patti Smith on Dec. 4.

Young and Crazy Horse also plan November concert dates with Smith in New York City, Philadelphia and Fairfax, Va.

Their first tour since 2004 will support Americana, a collection of American folk standards, some dating back as much as 200 years.

Americana was produced by Young and John Hanlon, along with Mark Humphreys.

Ticket sales for the North American tour begin June 8 in select markets at Ticketmaster.com and LiveNation.com.
