The annual Farm Aid concert came to Bristow, VA's Jiffy Lube Live on Saturday with a day full of music that included Farm Aid board members Neil Young, Willie Nelson, Dave Matthews and John Mellencamp as well as sets from Alabama Shakes, Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats, Sturgill Simpson, Jamey Johnson and others.
Jamey Johnson is one of the fortunate individuals to have counted the late Merle Haggard among his friends, and his honest, sympathetic approach to songs about working-class life makes him one of the country legend's closest modern analogs.
Jamey Johnson is one of the most highly regarded and well-liked country musicians of his time. Johnson grew up in Alabama and, despite the fact that he’s clearly a talented artist, he has largely shirked his fame to stay true to his roots.
