Ben Folds and the San Diego Symphony

As a solo artist and as frontman for Ben Folds Five, singer-songwriter-pianist-raconteur Ben Folds has earned a reputation as a singular and influential voice in the world of popular music. One of pop and rock?s great piano-playing showmen, Ben?s sound and sensibility ? an eclectic mix of rock power, jazz chops, and wry observational songwriting ? evokes the essence of classic pop while adding an idiosyncratic infusion of energy and wit. As multi-platinum selling artist, Folds is responsible for popular indie rock tunes as such as ?Brick,? ?Rockin? the Suburbs,? ?Underground,? and ?The Battle of Who Could Care Less.? The San Diego Symphony returns to the Center to accompany the bespectacled songsmith who will showcase his brand new piano concerto in addition to performing selections from his catalog.
