About this event

A campus favorite is back!  John Rush is known as the "Human Spotify." Why? Because he has over 85 hours of music in his head. You could see 42 different 2-hour shows and never hear a song twice. He has two giant request books. Anything from current songs to favorite songs you grew up with! Students pick songs they want to hear and write them on little post-it notes, then stick them all over the stage. This lets the audience get involved and show off their talent.

Look for the Human Spotify at the Webb either on the Cenovus Patio or in the lobby.
