Neil Young

In 2018, when Neil Young took the stage at Farm Aid, he was riding high on the wave of his album "The Visitor," which had been released just the previous year in 2017. This album showcased Young's enduring artistry and commitment to social issues, brilliantly blending his classic sound with modern themes. Known for his deep connection to environmental activism and farming communities, performing at Farm Aid underscores his dedication to sustainable agriculture and the struggles faced by family farmers in America. Fun fact: Neil's collaboration with Promise of the Real, particularly around this time, highlighted a vibrant synergy that brought fresh energy into his performances. Seeing him belt out "Field of Opportunity" live, you couldn't help but feel the weight of his words, as they resonate with his lifelong advocacy for both the land and its caretakers.
