Paper Airplane Request Tour
Ben Folds is widely regarded as one of the major music influencers of our generation.
The Emmy-nominated singer-songwriter-composer has created an enormous body of genre-bending music that includes pop albums with Ben Folds Five, multiple solo albums, and numerous collaborative records.
For the past three decades, he's toured as a pop artist, while also performing with some of the world's greatest symphony orchestras.
A New York Times Best Selling author and podcast host, Ben also composes for film, tv and theatre, guest stars in films and TV, and serves as the Artistic Advisor to the National Symphony Orchestra at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC.
A longtime advocate for arts and music education funding, Ben launched a music education charitable initiative in his native state of North Carolina entitled "Keys For Kids," which provides funds and keyboards to existing nonprofits that provide free or affordable music lessons to interested school-age children. On the national level, he's active as a member of Americans For The Arts and the Arts Action Fund.
Join us Thursday, April 11 for Ben Fold’s Paper Airplane Request Tour!
During the show, fans will be invited to launch their song requests to the stage via paper airplanes.
Tickets range from $45.00 - $99.50 (+ tax & fees).
