Willie Nelson's longtime Jewish harmonica player, Mickey Raphael, 74, will perform at his 40th Farm Aid concert on September 26 in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Raphael, who has played with Nelson since 1973, views the event as a form of tzedakah, stating, "We are helping them maintain their kibbutz." Farm Aid, co-founded by Nelson, Neil Young, and John Mellencamp in 1985, has raised over $90 million to support family farmers and local food systems. Raphael will also perform with Neil Young at the concert, which coincidentally falls during Sukkot weekend. Following Farm Aid, Raphael plans to tour with Chris Stapleton and score a documentary about marijuana farming in California.
