Venue: Xfinity Theatre Location: Hartford, CT, United States Date: September 22, 2018

On September 22, 2018, Neil Young performed 'Ohio' at the Farm Aid concert held at the Xfinity Theatre in Hartford, Connecticut. This live recording comes shortly after the release of his album 'The Visitor' in 2017, which spoke to themes of political and social upheaval, resonating deeply with the times. The performance at Farm Aid, an event long supported by Young, emphasizes his enduring commitment to social issues, especially those surrounding American farming. Notably, 'Ohio' is a powerful protest song addressing the tragedy of the Kent State shootings in 1970, showcasing how Young has consistently used his music to comment on critical social issues. This concert was a highlight in a career that spans decades and demonstrates Young's deep-rooted activism and connection to his audience.
