Dave Matthews recently visited Cleveland for an exclusive, acoustic performance in support of Cleveland candidate for Governor, Dennis Kucinich. On Friday, April 20, Matthews performed at a sold-out event at the Agora Theatre.
Dave and Dennis first connected in 2003 at Farm Aid, an organization which celebrates family farmers. Matthews has been a member of the Board of Directors for the organization. Since then, they have collaborated on farmer-friendly initiatives including regenerative agriculture and “carbon farming” as a climate change solution. They traveled together to Standing Rock to support indigenous rights and water protection. Clean water and green energy jobs are a cornerstone of the Kucinich for Ohio Gubernatorial campaign.
