Former Buffalo Springfield and CSNY bandmates Stephen Stills and Neil Young will again join forces for the all-star 2025 Autism Speaks Light Up The Blues 7 Concert. The event supporting Autism Speaks returns to The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles on April 26.

Young will perform a set with his band The Chrome Hearts featuring guitarist Micah Nelson, drummer Anthony LoGerfo, organist Spooner Oldham and bassist Corey McCormick. The upcoming Autism Speaks Light Up The Blues Concert lineup also includes current Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame nominee Billy Idol, Cat Power, Linda Perry and Stephen Stills’ son Chris Stills. Additional special guests are expected to participate.

The charity concert is once again hosted by Stephen Stills and Kristen Stills. The couple shared the statement below regarding the 2025 event:

“We are once again feeling grateful that we can play a part in helping Autism Speaks to fulfill their mission of creating such meaningful progress for autistic people and their families. There are a multitude of existing challenges and now, here in Los Angeles, we face a new reality of added need for our autism community. The trajectory of getting back to a sense of normalcy is very complex.

“We know that our support of Autism Speaks will help to ensure that the path will be smoother and approached with sensitivity and care. All the amazing artists joining us to celebrate autistic people will give our audience a night to remember for many years to come and we can’t wait to be with them once again!”
