Jack White Presented by ASUNM Student Special Events

February 3, 2015 - 7:30 PM

Main Campus - Popejoy Hall

UNM Popejoy Hall

ASUNM Student Special Events is excited to present Jack White in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  Jack White’s 2015 Lazaretto Tour will make a stop in UNM’s Popejoy Hall on February 3, 2015.

UNM Student discounted tickets go on sale Thursday, December 11th at 10 AM.  UNM Student discounted tickets are only available at the UNM Bookstore and PIT ticket offices and are available through January 21st. UNM students must have a valid UNM ID in order to purchase a discounted ticket.

Any student tickets not sold by January 21st will be available for public purchase on January 22nd.  Public tickets are available at unmtickets.com, UNM ticket offices located at the UNM Bookstore and the PIT, by phone at 505-925-5858 or at local Albertson’s stores.

Jack White’s most recent album Lazaretto (Third Man Record/Columbia) debuted at #1 on the U.S. albums chart as well as #1 in Canada and Denmark. Lazaretto also broke the record for first-week vinyl album sales - selling over 40,000 copies in the U.S. alone - making it not only the biggest selling vinyl album of 2014, but of any year since 1991.

* Just Announced:  Opening act is Chicano Batman. Chicano Batman is your sonic outlet from the monotonous back into the soul. Ethnomusicologists in their own right, they are students of rhythm, globe trotting on a quest to reclaim and represent the musical roots of their past generations. Drawing from a broad range of 60s and early 70s Brazilian bossa nova and samba, spacey psychedelia, slow-jam soul with a pinch of surf-rock cumbia, the quartet uniforms their act in retro ruffled-tuxedo shirts from a thrift store near you. Chicano Batman is more than a musical force but an adventurous and opinionated superhero who feeds off of community, afro-centricity and bolillos, on a mission to bring the overlooked to the forefront.

For more information about the show, contact ASUNM Student Special Events at 505-277-5602 or at sse@unm.edu
