The University has announced a diverse lineup of musical acts, including Feeling 22: A Tribute to Taylor Swift, Y2K Kids, and Mississippi singer-songwriter Sam Donald. The three featured acts represent a wide range of musical styles, offering everything from contemporary pop favorites and nostalgic hits to original country-rock sounds that appeal to diverse audiences.

Feeling 22 takes the stage at 4 p.m. and delivers an interactive concert experience featuring music from every era of Taylor Swift’s career. From country favorites to chart-topping pop hits, the tribute act encourages audience participation and offers fans of all ages a chance to celebrate the music of one of today’s most popular artists.

Beginning at 5:30 p.m., Y2K Kids brings audiences back to the early 2000s with a high-energy mix of pop, rock, hip-hop and R&B hits. Known for recreating the sights, sounds and nostalgia of the decade, the six-piece band has become a favorite for crowds looking to relive the era of flip phones, MP3 players and unforgettable playlists.

The last performer of the evening, Sam Donald will play from 7:30 to 9 p.m. Originally from Jackson, Miss., he rose to national attention after several songs and videos went viral on TikTok in 2024, generating more than 15 million views in less than six weeks.
