Modern Warrior Live

Modern Warrior LIVE is an immersive music and narrative experience that chronicles the story of US Army veteran Jaymes Poling and his journey through three deployments in Afghanistan and his subsequent transition back home. Narrated by Poling, this autobiographical production weaves together his story with a cast of world-class artists in multiple genres led by internationally acclaimed trumpeter and MWL creator Dominick Farinacci. MWL shares a personal and emotional journey of the challenges of military service, the experience veterans face when they return home, a resilient path forward, and it is a catalyst for meaningful conversation about mental health.

Modern Warrior LIVE has been recognized by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, the 26th U.S. Secretary of Defense – General James Mattis – and has been showcased at Amazon Headquarters and at the National Council for Behavioral Health Conference opening for Brené Brown.
