CSN 2012 is a live album by Crosby, Stills & Nash. Released in 2012 on Atlantic Records, it is the group's first release on their original label in 18 years.[2] The album derives from a recording done April 22 on the group's 2012 tour in both audio and video formats.[3]

Background

After reuniting for a Bridge School Benefit in 2010, the surviving members of Buffalo Springfield played seven shows in 2011. In 2012, Stephen Stills, Richie Furay, and Neil Young planned a full-blown Buffalo Springfield tour. After venues had been secured and tour personnel hired, Young dropped out to join up with Crazy Horse for two albums and a tour instead, leaving Stills "in a lurch". Crosby & Nash canceled their plans for a duo tour to reunite with Stills for a Crosby, Stills and Nash tour in place of the Buffalo Springfield tour.[4]
