This year’s headliners bring a mix of R&B, hip-hop, and alternative energy to the stage. Tinashe, a multi-talented singer, songwriter, and dancer, is known for hits like '2 On' and 'All Hands on Deck,' blending smooth vocals with cutting-edge production. Meanwhile, Teezo Touchdown, a rising star in alternative hip-hop and rock, has made waves with his genre-bending sound and eccentric style, earning him a growing fan base and critical acclaim. The Spring Concert will take place at the Mullins Center with doors opening ahead of showtime, allowing attendees to experience the full lineup of performances. Tickets for the event are expected to sell quickly, and UPC encourages attendees to secure their spots early.
