University Union has announced the details for their first spring 2022 Bandersnatch concert. This will be UU’s second Bandersnatch concert of the 2021-22 school year — the fall 2021 Bandersnatch concert was the first to occur since 2019.

The concert will take place on Friday, Feb. 4 at 8 p.m. in Goldstein Auditorium, with doors opening at 7:45 p.m. Tickets went on sale Jan. 23 and are only available for SU and SUNY-ESF students, faculty and staff.

The concert will be headlined by influential hip-hop artist Freddie Gibbs. The Indiana-raised artist’s discography features over 20 mixtapes, eight EPs and four albums. His 2020 album “Alfredo” was nominated for the Best Rap Album Grammy and reached No. 4 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart.

Opening for Freddie Gibbs is Pink Siifu, a 29-year-old artist from Birmingham, Alabama. Pink Siifu — born Livingston Matthews — has been developing his sound since 2012. He fuses the genres of soul, punk, jazz, rap and experimental to create music that reflects on ideas, life and struggles experienced through Blackness, which brings attention to family, culture and faith, UU said in a press release.



Tickets cost $5 for students and $10 for staff and faculty, UU said. Concert attendees must provide an SU or SUNY-ESF ID for entry. UU also requires that all concertgoers adhere to the fall 2021 Stay Safe Pledge, New York State and Syracuse University COVID-19 guidelines, mandates, and campus masking requirements.

Bandersnatch will be a mask-required (in accordance with SU’s COVID-19 Levels) event.
