John Mellencamp

Charity biography

Mellencamp helped found Farm Aid, and, along with Willie Nelson and Neil Young, spoke about the issues with elected officials in Washington, D.C. before the first concert.

Although he has spoken out against the war in Iraq, John performed a televised concert for about 300 patients at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in support of the troops.
