Neil Young

By the time Neil Young performed 'Country Home' live at Farm Aid on September 22, 2012, he was riding a wave of resurgence in both popularity and creative output. This performance came shortly after the release of his album 'Americana' in June 2012, which showcased classic folk and protest songs with a fresh twist. Working alongside his longtime collaborators Crazy Horse added an electric intensity that fans had been craving. Interestingly, the Farm Aid concert not only highlighted Young's deep-rooted commitment to agricultural reform and support for family farmers, but it also exemplified his enduring legacy as an artist who speaks out on social issues. The energy of that day reminded everyone why Neil Young remains a pivotal figure in rock music, both for his artistry and activism.
