Ben Folds Does Holiday Music Right, Offering Fans a Very Ho-Ho-Holistic Christmas: Concert Review variety.com/2025/music/c...

In conversation with PEN America, Ben Folds talked about his decision to step down from the Kennedy Center, art as activism, and why he doesn’t believe in writer’s block. Read the full interview at: https://pen.org/ben-folds-interview/ #benfolds #kennedycenter

Two light nights on our Christmas tour in support of my album, Sleigher. (Went by so quickly!) 12/20 UPH Saratoga 12/21 Irving Plaza NYC

A lightweight but earnest post: I was recently told that my habit of leaving my groceries cart in the middle of the store & bringing back titems in small trips is… eccentric & not generally done. I looked around and I did seem to be the only one. This is the first I ever questioned it. Anyone else?

Ben Folds pulls back the curtain on 'Snoopy Presents: A Summer Musical' www.fox29.com/video/1700664

This pretty well sums up the process of writing songs for Charlie Brown. Along with the songs as they play with the animation. I like it! www.goldderby.com/tv/2025/snoo...

3 days in NYC for Snoopy Presents: A Summer Musical

Your three are available for streaming: orcd.co/summermusical

Well how about this! It was a pleasure to work on, and exciting that it’s out and off to a good start!

With the Peanuts summer musical special coming out. I’m out there talking about writing for Charlie Brown www.billboard.com/culture/tv-f...

When in Big Sky, just point the phone at the sky. Also stay hydrated.

Happy 30th to the first Ben Folds Five album. Wrote you some thoughts on it from tour bus, as i listened to it all the wau theoigh for first time in 3 decades www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=...

Here’s a new song - From “Snoopy Presents: A Summer Musical”. My demo and the Peanuts version. Charlie Brown has just learned that their camp is being torn down for development. “When We Were Light” orcd.co/wwwl

In about an hour and a half. 👇🏻

linktr.ee/streamBenFol... Live album recorded with NSO at Kennedy Center Oct 2024. There’s a certain Regina Spektor represented as well as Tall Heights.

Folds: If we’ve been told our whole lives that we can’t spend money on the arts because they’re not important—then why was taking over the Kennedy Center and the arts the first thing they did? It is extremely important. It’s the bedrock of self-expression.

Reminder for this: @actualbenfolds.bsky.social will be at Byrdland Records in Washington, DC on Friday 4 July to do a record signing. Also via livestream at Volume if you can’t make it in person - info below. 11am EST / 4pm GMT

Traverse City MI (where I played Cherry Fest 1986 slapping a bass 🤷🏻) Proud to see peaceful protest as far as the eye can see today #nokings ❤️ 🇺🇸

Yes very proud of what I wrote for the Peanut gang. Looking forward to this thing dropping!

Everyone ok with getting food poisoning routinely? That’s not efficiently.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

To my Jewish friends - Happy Passover - you’re the best ❤️

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

CBS piece today on Kennedy Center. Deborah Rutter is a legend - I’m proud to have been there with her 8 years. Worth watching. www.instagram.com/p/DH05QETuUy...

Given developments at the Kennedy Center, effective today I am resigning as artistic advisor to the NSO. Not for me. It’s been a wonderful 8 years working with Kennedy Center President Deb Rutter, fellow artistic advisor Renee Fleming, NSO artistic administrator Justin Ellis, and the entire NSO

This piece is worth reading - about what CA contributes to our country. Most don’t know that CA literally subsidizes most of the US states $$. Insist that the next administration not use this tragedy for politics. Be there for CA. open.substack.com/pub/paulkrugma…open.substack.com/pub/paulkrug...iu

This starts in about 45 min

Time to start following some accounts. Id like to begin the pre-boarding process, starting with music therapists and music teachers. Send up a ‘hi’ and I’ll start building this little site up. I’ll move on to veterinarians and veterans next.
