“We are honored and excited to bring the Farm Aid experience back to Indiana. My home state holds deep meaning for me and for the generations of family farmers who have dedicated their lives to caring for the Earth and bringing us good food,” said Mellencamp, who is a co-founder of Farm Aid.
The festival will also feature performances by Dave Matthews (with Tim Reynolds), Margo Price, Bobby Weir & Wolf Bros. featuring The Wolfpack, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, Lukas Nelson, Allison Russell, The String Cheese Incident and Particle Kid.
