The Ohio University Concert Series and the University Program Council will present the 2015 Campus Consciousness Tour featuring Nate Ruess on Wednesday, Oct. 14 in Templeton-Blackburn Alumni Memorial Auditorium.

Half music tour, half environmental campaign, the Campus Consciousness Tour aims to inspire and activate students in an electric atmosphere while leaving a positive impact on each community the tour visits. In addition to educating and mobilizing students, the tour is set up to have a minimal environmental footprint.

The tour’s headliner is Nate Ruess, best known for his work with pop hitmakers fun., recently released his first solo effort, The Grand Romantic, on June 16. The in-demand singer/tunesmith, whose credits include Pink’s Grammy-nominated #1 hit “Just Give Me A Reason” and Eminem’s “Headlights,” also performed on Brian Wilson’s latest album, No Pier Pressure, and made several appearances on NBC’s The Voice this past spring.

Concert Connection pre-sale tickets will be available Aug. 6 at 12 p.m. Public sale tickets go on sale Aug. 7 at noon. For information, visit ohio.edu/performingarts.
