In a remarkable show of support for both the arts and local agriculture, Select Design has announced Hug Your Farmer: Hard Rain, an electrifying musical event dedicated to the iconic works of Bob Dylan. The musical celebration, scheduled at The Flynn in Burlington, Vt., on Sept. 7, promises unforgettable performances by a constellation of stars, all while contributing to a vital cause. 100% of the proceeds from the event will be directed towards The Vermont Community Foundation and the hardworking farmers of Vermont.

The musical gathering will welcome Phish’s Mike Gordon, who will be joined by his daughter Tessa, Tony-winning sensation Kelli O’Hara, the soulful Martin Sexton, and Chadwick Stokes of Dispatch fame. The stage will further come alive with performances by The Sweet Remains, Kat Wright, Josh Panda, Dwight & Nicole, Matt Flinner, Matt Hagen, Seth Yacovone, and many others.

Guiding the ensemble will be the Hug Your Farmer All-Star Band, led by the accomplished Bob Wagner. Notable musicians like Ray Paczkowski from the Trey Anastasio Band, Clint and Peter from The Grift, Josh Weinstein, Steve Hadeka, Eric George, Tony Naples, Matt Larocca, Corey Wilhelm, and more will add their talents to the mix.
