Ben Folds Instagram – Fine residents of the DC area: I’ve got a solo piano show this Thursday, September 21st at the Main Concert Hall at @kennedycenter. Tix in bio.
If there ever was a home venue for me, it is this incredible place. Lucky me!
I do a lot of work there with the National Symphony Orchestra, but this show will be me as a musician in my natural habitat, on tour, in support of my new album “What Matters Most.”
In fact, the song “Paddleboat Breakup” on the new album came from an improvised song at my last Kennedy Center solo show a couple years ago.
So yes, there will be new songs. But I also want to make this set special with your input. I’m not normally this democratic, but, hey, it’s DC.
Feel free to respond to this post with your requests and song suggestions. I’ll put together a unique set for the 21st (haha..I’ll have to brush up) to honor my home away from home gig.
Also, plan on arriving early enough to catch special guest @linzkraft (look her up) and thank me later.
See ya there, Ben.
