Details
Emmy-nominated singer, songwriter, and composer Ben Folds has created an extensive body of genre-bending work that spans four albums as the frontman of alternative rock band Ben Folds Five, multiple solo releases, and numerous collaborative projects. In this stripped-down performance, Folds delivers an intimate, improvisation-filled evening of fan favorites, deep cuts, and personal storytelling.
His latest pop solo album, What Matters Most (2023), received rave reviews, followed by a series of sold-out performances. A New York Times best-selling author, Folds also writes new music for film, TV, and theater, and regularly appears as a guest star on screen.
In 2022, Folds launched Keys For Kids, a charitable music education initiative in his home state of North Carolina. The program provides funding and keyboards to nonprofits offering free or affordable piano lessons to school-age children from economically disadvantaged households.
