Will Dailey &The Rivals present Road to Farm Aid + Howard Jennings August 8, 2011

Will Dailey is an acclaimed recording and performing artist, who is a two-time winner of a Boston Music Award for Best Singer/Songwriter. Dailey has released two full-length albums (Back Flipping Forward and Torrent) through CBS Records and his music has been featured on over 50 TV programs and films. He has appeared on stage with Neil Young, Dave Matthews, Willie Nelson and John Mellencamp at two of their philanthropic Farm Aid concerts, and recently completed work on a Stephen King/John Mellencamp project produced by T Bone Burnett. After seeing Will Dailey in concert, the New York Post's Dan Aquilante favorably contrasted him with the performers on American Idol, writing, "Forget the last five months of force-fed artificial pop music on TV that just crowned a king (who I'm betting will be forgotten as quickly as he was created) - Will Dailey is the real deal."

Will Dailey and his band The Rivals will help raise awareness for Farm Aid's mission to keep family farmers on their land in order to guarantee an agricultural system that ensures farmers a fair living, strengthens our communities, protects our natural resources and delivers good food to all. A portion of the proceeds from each show will go directly to Farm Aid, and their regional partners in each market will have the opportunity to highlight the work they are doing to support family farm-centered food systems

"Jennings is a country-dusted popster who writes smart tunes that resonate with the positive images of folks ranging from Jason Mraz to Vertical Horizon (he's toured with VH). Don't be surprised when this guy makes it." - Rick Koster, The Day

Former business major turned singer-songwriter, Howard Jennings "has an undeniable knack for catchy melodies" (Seven Days) and has become known as an engaging and magnetic live performer. He's toured nationally with Vertical Horizon, Rusted Root and Ryan Cabrera and has supported Marcy Playground and Eve 6. This New York based artist, who has averaged over 100 shows a year and traveled as far as Singapore to perform, "is building steady career momentum" (The Daily News).
