Having released his latest album, ‘Now,’ in May 2023, Graham Nash recently talked about the possibility of retiring. Despite approaching his 82nd birthday, the singer has no intention to stop yet, as he revealed on BBC Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs:
“I love what I do. That’s the thing, you know, don’t give up. I love what I do, you know, don’t let anybody stop you. If you have something that you love, get to it, do it! I can’t do anything about the past. You can’t buy a second of time. Even Bill Gates and [Mark] Zuckerberg can’t buy a second of time.”
The Singer’s Decades-Long Career Has New Works In Line
Nash received two inductions into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame throughout his career: in 1997 with Crosby, Stills & Nash, and later in 2010 with The Hollies. 2010 also saw him getting an OBE for his contributions to music.
2024 will mark another chapter in his life as an artist, with an Australian tour planned to kick off on March 1 in New Zealand. According to the singer’s previous interviews, there will also be new songs from him in the upcoming years.
His Ongoing Career May Bring Along New Collaborations With Former Bandmates
In early 2023, the singer lost his partner of nearly 60 years. With the passing of David Crosby, the Crosby, Stills & Nash trio ended, but Graham is open to collaborating with the band’s surviving members for upcoming projects. In October, he told Noise11:
“That would depend on the music. Right now, all three of us know that without David, it is never going to be the same, and no matter what we did, people would always miss Crosby, of course. Who knows? It all depends on the songs.”
His words continued:
“If Neil comes up to me like he did way back when we did that album in Miami with the boys. He says, ‘I’ve got three songs here, and I’ve got three of Stephen’s. What do you think and he played me the songs, and they were wonderful. My point is, if Neil or Stephen come up with songs that we need to do, we will try and figure it out.”
