It's intended to be "a virtual show of support and solidarity for family farmers and ranchers" Willie Nelson will co-host the first ever online version of ‘Farm Aid’ this weekend, featuring live-streamed performances by the likes of Nelson, Neil Young and Dave Matthews.

The event will be the second live-streamed event Nelson has hosted since the coronavirus-enforced lockdown was brought into effect.

Last month, the country veteran staged an online version of his annual Luck Reunion event after it was cancelled. ‘Farm Aid’ will make the move online on Saturday evening (April 11) for ‘At Home With Farm Aid’, which will be hosted by Nelson and his sons Lukas and Micah.
