Episode Details

When the sun sets on Richard Reeves’ farm, it doesn’t mean his day is over—it means it’s time to don sequins and channel Elton John. A tenant farmer by day and a stage performer by night, Richard’s dual life is more than just a hustle; it’s a survival strategy in an industry squeezing farmers harder than ever. With tribute shows selling out and mental health benefits stacking up, Richard’s story is just one of many as farmers like Luke Hasell turn their land into music festivals to stay afloat. In a world where farming alone can’t pay the bills, creativity, resilience, and a little rock ‘n’ roll are becoming essential tools for survival—and sanity.
