The Grammy(®) Award winning trio, who first performed together at the now legendary Woodstock Festival over four decades ago, will perform three exclusive concerts for passengers on board Queen Mary 2 during the seven-night Transatlantic Crossing from New York to Southampton.

"We are excited to welcome Crosby, Stills & Nash onboard Queen Mary 2 during Cunard's 175th anniversary year. Having these music legends perform will be nothing less than thrilling for our passengers," said Richard Meadows, president of Cunard Line North America. "The band's presence onboard demonstrates Cunard's continued commitment to providing unique access to some of the world's most legendary artists, resulting in a truly unforgettable ocean travel experience for our guests."

Crosby, Stills & Nash (CS&N) burst onto the music scene in 1969 with their self-titled debut LP, now one of Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time." The band members are among the few to have been inducted twice into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, once with Crosby, Stills & Nash, and a second time with The Byrds, Buffalo Springfield and the Hollies. They have also been inducted into the Songwriter's Hall of fame, with the honour recognizing both CS&N as a group and each member as individual solo artists.

During the Queen Mary 2 Crossing from New York (M519A), the trio will perform some of their greatest hits including "Teach Your Children," "Southern Cross" and "Wooden Ships" in the Royal Court Theatre. They will also participate in a Q&A session and special autograph opportunity for passengers on board.

"This will be a unique experience for us," said Graham Nash. "We're really looking forward to making music, bringing back memories and creating new ones--and this journey from New York to Southampton, on this beautiful vessel, will do just that."
