Mraz, Folds to perform at Smith Center

Musicians Jason Mraz and Ben Folds will perform at the Smith Center on Feb. 13, Program Board and WRGW announced Wednesday.

Tiffany Meehan, PB executive chair, said tickets will go on sale at Ticketmaster on Jan. 26 and will cost $33 each.

“We have been wanting to have a concert since I’ve been a freshman,” said Meehan, a senior. She added that in the past, the organization has had trouble “choosing the right bands that fit for GW.”

Mraz and Folds are double-headlining and will each perform a complete set, Meehan said.

Program Board is subsidizing part of the ticket cost, she added.

“Each of these acts were [in D.C.] separately this fall and tickets were $39 each, without Ticketmaster surcharges,” Meehan said.

She also said that Folds is currently holding a competition for the a capella groups on campus. The groups each submitted videos of their performances and the winner will perform with Folds during his set.

Meehan said the 4,000 tickets available for the event will be general admission.
