Snowflakes drift down on country-rocker Neil Young as he performs Sugar Mountain in his backyard in the first of his self-quarantine fireside sessions.

Filmed by his wife Darryl Hannah, Young's video presentation of fireside hits sung around his Colorado property has been described as a beautiful, intimate and strange experience.

He peppers his mini performance with dry asides and a grin.

But with a snow-capped mountain range and cold, leafless trees in the background as he performs Sugar Mountain, it's a wonder his lips don't stick to his harmonica.

For the next song, Vampire Blues, he's back indoors and playing by the fire.
