Ben Folds Announces 2016 Australian Tour With YMusic

Acclaimed US singer/songwriter Ben Folds has announced he will return to Australia for a headline tour this August, alongside celebrated New York-based chamber ensemble yMusic.

The group will join Folds on stage to perform tracks from his September released album, So There, (which debuted at #1 on the US Billboard Classical Chart), as well as hits from his extensive catalogue.

The tour will see Folds and yMusic perform in Brisbane, Sydney, Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne and Canberra.

"I'm looking forward to bring our new LIVE show to Australia," Folds said.

"For me, returning to Australia is like coming home, where I have deep roots and feel such a strong connection to audiences."
