Spend the evening with Jesse McCartney and Echosmith at Burns Arena
By Jessica Killingsworth
Think back to the best concert you have been to over the past few years. Where did you go to see it? In the past, most of you would have answered Salt Lake or Vegas, because the St. George community simply didn’t host big-name rock and pop talent. We are glad to say those days are gone thanks to St. George-based Synergy Entertainment.
Synergy Entertainment is committed to bringing world-class music and production to southern Utah. Synergy Entertainment co-owner Matthew Mizukawa is excited to bring another national act to St. George after the success of Daya and David Archuleta in 2018.
“Southern Utah is where I live, and I know the people of St. George want the opportunity to experience great music close to home,” said Mizukawa.
On March 23 at 7:30 p.m., Jesse McCartney and Echosmith will take the Burns Arena stage as co-headliners for an amazing night of music on the DSU campus. Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased by calling the DSU box office at (435) 652-7800 or online by visiting dsutix.com.
Jesse McCartney is known worldwide for his platinum singles “Beautiful Soul” and “Leavin’.” His most recent song “Wasted,” was released in late 2018 to the delight of his loyal fans. McCartney is fresh off his “Better With You” U.S. tour where he played his hits to fans from coast to coast. He recently announced that he is staying out on the road in 2019 due to the success of his single, “Wasted,” with “The Resolution Tour.” Jesse will be joined onstage by the sibling indie pop trio Echosmith, who exploded onto the Billboard Hot 100 in 2014 when their breakout single “Cool Kids” went double platinum. In 2015, the band released “Bright” which was also certified platinum. The band opened for acapella sensation Pentatonix on tour through 2018 while also releasing their newest single “Over My Head.” Siblings Noah, Sydney, and Graham are excited to release new music in March.
The concert is sponsored in part by DSU’s student association as part of its annual Dixiefest celebration. Last year, Dixiefest featured Portugal the Man in a hugely successful show, and this year’s double headliner looks to build on that excitement. The Jesse McCartney/Echosmith ticket is also sponsored by Canyon Media’s The Planet 105.1 which will offer on-air ticket giveaways leading up to the event. Tune in for your chance to win concert tickets and meet McCartney before the show.
Synergy Entertainment, in conjunction with DSUSA, is offering a limited number of specially priced student tickets for college and high school students. Students are encouraged to buy these $25 tickets early as they will sell out quickly. General reserved seating tickets will be available for $35 and general admission floor tickets for $45. You can purchase tickets at DSU’s box office, by phone at (435) 652-7800, or by visiting dsutix.com.
