The 39th annual Farm Aid concert took place on Saturday at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center in Saratoga Springs, NY, with a star-studded lineup coming together to support the American farmer.

GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter and musician Lukas Nelson joined forces with The Travelin’ McCourys and Sierra Ferrell for a new bluegrass-tinged version of Adele’s beloved song, “Someone Like You”—out today. The rendition came together organically while Nelson and The Travelin’ McCourys were rehearsing for their DelFest performance earlier this year. They will once again share the stage next Saturday at Farm Aid in Saratoga Springs, NY.

Nelson Ledges Quarry Park (NLQP) was an operational rock quarry for nearly 20 years until the late 1950s when mining operations accidentally tapped into an underground freshwater spring. Much like a dinghy with a hole, NLQP quickly filled with water, making it impossible for the miners to continue their work. Operations were shuttered, and local phreaks of all sorts became the only visitors to the 250-acre hidden lake near Garrettsville, Ohio.
