Also added to the bill are Band of Horses, The BoDeans, Amos Lee and Robert Francis, organizers said Wednesday.

Previously announced performers for "Farm Aid 25: Growing Hope for America" include Farm Aid board members Willie Nelson, Neil Young, John Mellencamp and Dave Matthews.

The event is to take place Oct. 2 at Miller Park in Milwaukee. The show will be broadcast live on DirecTV.

"The all-day festival will be a celebration of music, family farmers and good food and will again feature Homegrown concessions -- family farm-identified, local and organic foods. Farm Aid's Homegrown Village will showcase hands-on activities that give concertgoers a chance to meet farmers, get their hands dirty and learn how family farmers are protecting our land and water and connecting us to our roots," Farm Aid organizers said in a news release Wednesday.
