Posner said he’s familiar with MSU’s student body and is excited to perform.

“College crowds are rowdier! I know how hard kids go at State,” he said in an email. “I’ve had my fair share (of) epic nights on your campus.”

Posner, originally from Southfield, Mich., said it’s incredible to be returning to perform so close to his hometown.

“The hair stands up on my arm thinking about it,” he said. “East Lansing was the first place in the world to support my music. There is no place on Earth that I owe more to than MSU.”

Doors open at 7:15 p.m. and Posner takes the stage at 9 p.m.

Tickets are $20 for students and $25 for the general public and are available through the Wharton Center box office.
