Harding student Sam Busbey, better known for his artist name “greedi” is set to perform alongside Knights Band and Silas Carpenter at Citizens Park in Searcy tomorrow, March 15th.
These artists are known on campus for previous performances that students have supported. The concert proceeds this time around will be donated to Dale House Project, an organization based in Colorado Springs that supports at-risk young men.
Performing artists are prepared to give a show of about two hours for the audience with a mixed-genre setlist containing something everyone can enjoy.
Guitarist for the “greedi” band, Zane Frost, said the group started practicing early on.
“I think we ran one or two before Christmas break.” Frost said.
The expectation for a big turnout is optimistic as the performance draws near, guitarist Gabe White shared the volume of tickets they have sold already.
“I think last I heard we sold more tickets than Spring Sing.” White said.
These bands are planning to really bring the stage presence this year as they try to live up to the names of other Harding known groups such as “Nordista Freeze”.
“I personally think this concert will be kind of like the–conglomeration of all the concerts we’ve had in the past in terms of genre, energy–I really think it will be special, I’m trying to personally bring a lot of energy, more than like any of the performers we’ve had.” Busbey said in regards to the performance.
Frost shared his sentiment for this concert and the work they have put into it.
“The practices have been sounding really good,” Frost said. “It’s so much fun to practice with these guys and I’m really excited to get to play this show. I think that it’s gonna sound really good and if you don’t go you’re gonna be missing out and you’re gonna regret it for the rest of your life probably.”
Ticket price is seven dollars in the Student’s Center and ten dollars at the gate. The performance starts at 6:30pm.
