You should know that all of the artists donate their performances, and all of the labels and publishers do as well. It’s a wonderful gift! We at Farm Aid are gratified with wonderful support from the music industry, permitting the inspired music and message of Farm Aid to reach many more! I spoke last week with Justin Peters, who represents the song:
“Before the Night is Over”
Written by Ben Peters

It’s just one example of the generosity that makes Farm Aid possible. Thanks to Albert Spevak who worked so hard to make terrific television shows for Farm Aid.
