Talent Anyone Can Get Into
The Wind Creek Event Center - Bethlehem
My wife is the Ben Folds fan out of the two of us, but I have never left one of his shows without being impressed and entertained. This show was no exception. His talent for writing, singing and playing piano are evident with every song. His wit and personality fill the space between songs with engaging short stories, making for a great night. The Wind Creek Event Center leaves something to be desired with the flat gymnasium-like feel, but it still sounded good to someone like myself who isn’t that much of an audio snob. The big TV displays make up for much of what the flat seating lacks. The folding chairs definitely were squashed together and not comfortable though.

Fantastic!
The Wind Creek Event Center - Bethlehem
What an outstanding show! Not only did Ben perform all kinds of songs, both old and new, he was very engaging with the audience and made sure to take the time and describe where he got the inspiration for a lot of the songs. Hearing this and then playing the song right after gave them a whole new level of meaning and appreciation. Plus he did this all while recovering from bronchitis! Very glad I got to attend this event, and I would definitely do so again in the future. Highly recommended.

Even with bronchitis, Ben wowed the crowd
The Wind Creek Event Center - Bethlehem
Phenomenal show! Ben is an amazing pianist, lyricist, storyteller and showman. Even with bronchitis, he wowed the crowd as he pushed through with honesty and humility. Ben's personal stories about several of the songs brought us in deeper to the lyrics. And Ben invited us to join him, singing along several times. I sat in Row 7 with so much gratitude! The only drawback, the folding chairs were a bit uncomfortable.

Had a blast- Ben is always great. He was game as ever despite the fact that he wasn’t feeling too great. He puts on a great show!

Always a good show!
Music Box at the Borgata - Atlantic City
Ben Folds was recovering from bronchitis, but you would barely notice! He gave a great performance, was engaging and entertaining the crowd as always. Ben Folds is someone I always try to catch when he comes around and I can't wait until the next time!

A Smashing Great Time with a Musical Genius
Bayou Music Center - Houston
I was fortunate enough to see Ben Folds at The Wiltern in August. Was Super Stoked to see him in my hometown of Houston. Same tour, two completely different experiences (both great). I was mesmerized. Buying a seat in the 3rd row was the best decision, I could FEEL the music. Thanks for the memories.

Super Chill Venue
Bayou Music Center - Houston
Small venue, parking was extremely close and a breeze to navigate, the staff is super friendly and the amenities are great. Bathrooms were no problem as a guy, can't know the ladies' perspective, but there wasn't a crowded space anywhere in the building. There's a bar downstairs that has a small menu. I had the quesadilla, it's pretty much what you'd expect from a bar that serves a little food on the side but at $14 they weren't trying to kill you about it. Lots of room to hang out downstairs with a pool table and big puffy chairs and couches and such. We played checkers with a chess board at our table.

Ben Folds is a MUST see!
DPAC - Durham Performing Arts Center - Durham
Ben Folds was amazing!! His grand piano playing was impeccable and his telling of stories before the songs was quite a treat and entertaining! We've seen him with a band and with an orchestra and this was just so special! His concert is a must see!
Ben Folds is widely regarded as one of the major music influencers of our generation.
He's created an enormous body of genre-bending music that includes pop albums with Ben Folds Five, multiple solo albums, and numerous collaborative records. His last album was a blend of pop songs and his Concerto for Piano and Orchestra that soared to #1 on both the Billboard classical and classical crossover charts.
For over a decade he's performed with some of the world's greatest symphony orchestras, and currently serves as the first ever Artistic Advisor to the National Symphony Orchestra at the Kennedy Center.
Folds released his first book - a collection of interrelated essays, anecdotes and lessons about art, life and music - in 2019, which debuted as a New York Times Best Seller, and is currently hosting a podcast series spinoff of his book entitled "Lightning Bugs: Conversations with Ben Folds." In addition to solo rock and orchestral touring, he's also developing a new unscripted tv series with Fred Rogers Productions, continues to appear in various film/tv guest starring roles, and is working on two new albums.
An avid photographer, Folds is also a member of the prestigious Sony Artisans of Imagery, has worked as an assignment photo editor for National Geographic, and was featured in a mini-documentary by the Kennedy Center's Digital Project on his photographic work.
An outspoken champion for arts education and music therapy funding in our nation's public schools, has served for over five years as an active member of the distinguished Artist Committee of Americans For The Arts (AFTA), and serves on the Board of AFTA's Arts Action Fund. He also served as Chairman of the Arts Action Fund's ArtsVote2020 national initiative that encouraged voter engagement in the 2020 US elections, and continually advocates for improving public policies for the arts and arts education.
