PartyNextDoor to Perform at the Washington Fair Grounds
PartyNextDoor will perform live at 9 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 15, at the Washington County Fairgrounds. Transportation will be provided for students. Shuttles will start at 8 p.m. from the Arkansas Union bus terminal and will run until midnight. The last ride to the fairgrounds will be leaving at 9:30 p.m.
The persona of producer and singer Jahron Brathwaite, PartyNextDoor finds the Toronto-based artist experimenting with a fractured blend of minimal hip-hop and R&B reminiscent of the Weeknd. The first artist signed to fellow Canadian Drake's label, OVO Sound, PartyNextDoor made his self-titled debut on the label in 2013. A sequel followed in 2014.
The University Programs Concerts Committee hosts free concerts for students. Artists who have performed in previous shows include Ben Rector, Spoon, Mae, Guster, Eric Church, Rooney, and Shwayze. The Concerts Committee is responsible for all aspects of the show, including selection of the artists, advertising, and production.
