Additional Information

Ben Folds will be touring globally through the Fall as he promotes his new album, and will be stopping by the McGrath Amphitheater mid summer.

The upcoming album will showcase new pop songs by the multi-platinum-selling singer/songwriter/producer. Recorded in just under two weeks in New York, Los Angeles, and Folds' own historic RCA Studio A in Nashville, the album is marked by its forward-thinking studio craft and creative spontaneity.

Folds first found international success as the leader of the Ben Folds Five. His subsequent solo career has seen the release of multiple studio albums, a pair documenting his renowned live performances, a remix collection, music for film and TV, an all a capella record, as well as numerous collaborations with artists spanning Sara Bareilles to William Shatner. In March 2014, Folds premiered "Concerto For Piano and Orchestra" accompanied by the Nashville Symphony. Since then, he has spent much of his time touring around the globe, performing the three-movement concerto and orchestrations of his classic pop hits before sold-out crowds with some of the world's greatest symphony orchestras.

A Nashville resident, Folds owns and operates the historic RCA Studio A. The studio is the multi-platinum artist's creative hub, where he composes, collaborates, produces and records his genre-defying work, as well as that of other artists. Folds has earned universal respect and praise for his insight as judge on five highly rated seasons of NBC's a capella competition series, The Sing Off. In addition, he has made cameo appearances in a variety of film and TV projects, including a role on NBC's Community.
