Ben Folds is a wonder to watch, whether he's pounding the piano keys, gently finessing them or ripping a solo like a jazz master.
The Emmy®-nominated singer, songwriter and composer creates well-crafted songs that are both simple and complex; emotional and technical. His lyrics range from deep and fragile to playful and sarcastic. He's become a major music influencer of his generation.
On stage, Ben is engaging and witty as he interacts with the audience at every turn, spinning yarns like a seasoned storyteller. Few performers can pull this off, but the talented musician and author relishes the intimate experience. You will too, whether you're a long-time fan or someone who just appreciates great music.
Opening the show is Lindsey Kraft, a multi-faceted singer, songwriter and actress. You may recognize her from Netflix's Grace and Frankie and Obliterated. Lindsey will be performing her brand of theatrical pop songs including tunes from her musical, love, me.
