The annual SGA Spring Concert will include appearances from Maddie & Tae and Jordy Searcy
Singer, songwriter and country music star Riley Green will headline the Student Government Association’s (SGA) Spring Concert at East Tennessee State University. Special guests Maddie & Tae and Jordy Searcy will also perform.
The artists will take the stage at 7 p.m. on Sunday, April 21, at Freedom Hall Civic Center in Johnson City.
Green, named the 2020 Academy of Country Music’s New Male Artist of the Year, was raised on the sounds of traditional country, bluegrass and Southern gospel. These genres laid a foundation for his songs, like his No. 1 platinum hit, “There Was This Girl,” and chart-topping collaboration with Thomas Rhett, “Half Of Me.”
Since releasing “Girl In A Country Song” in 2013, Maddie & Tae have cemented themselves as a powerful female duo, winning Group/Duo Video of the Year at the CMT Music Awards and earning a ninth nomination for Vocal Duo of the Year at the 57th CMA Awards.
Searcy, known for jaw-dropping lyrics, stunning vocals and intricate guitar work, has made quite a mark for an artist with only two album releases. Searcy has written over 1,000 songs in his career and has received viral support through TikTok and Spotify for his records “Molly” and “Love & War in Your Twenties.”
