Eddie Vedder, Brandi Carlile, Mumford & Sons, The Lumineers, and more join the direct-to-fan marketplace.
Volume 1 of the album Heart of Gold: The Songs of Neil Young is now available for pre-sale exclusively on Curios. The album features renditions of Neil Young's songs that honor the legacy of his work, and is expected to release on April 25, 2025.
As part of the project, more than a dozen world-renowned musicians and bands are joining Curios' direct-to-fan marketplace, including Eddie Vedder, Stephen Marley, Courtney Barnett, Mumford & Sons, Sharon Van Etten, Brandi Carlile, and The Doobie Brothers with Allison Russell. By participating in the digital release on Curios, these artists are joining a platform that puts fans and creators at the forefront of music distribution.
The collection of Neil Young classics includes reimagined covers from some of today's most celebrated artists, reflecting his enduring influence across generations and genres. Fans can get an early start with digital pre-sales of both the full album and individual tracks, available only on Curios, securing their copies before the official release date while supporting the cause behind the project.
In keeping with Neil Young's longstanding commitment to charitable causes, a percentage of the proceeds from this album benefits The Bridge School in Hillsborough, California. By buying the album through Curios, fans help support the school's mission of providing opportunities, resources, and support for children with speech and physical impairments.
On Curios, creators and rights holders keep 100% of net proceeds from sales and get direct access to their fan and customer data. Curios is one of the few platforms where fans purchase digital copies rather than only streaming them, so listeners can keep and play their purchased tracks without being tied to a subscription and maintain a permanent collection of the Heart of Gold album.
Release date: April 25, 2025.
