Ben Folds: Paper Airplane Request Tour

Emmy-nominated, multi-platinum selling musician and composer Ben Folds announced the return of his popular Paper Airplane Request Tour, performing solo shows across the U.S. including a stop this fall at The University at Buffalo Center for the Arts on Thursday, November 7, 2024 at 7:30 p.m. 

What initially began years ago as a request for songs as encores will once again be a central element in Folds’ shows when he engages audiences to make their song requests via paper airplanes. “The last time I did this on tour the response was overwhelming, with literally hundreds of paper airplanes with song requests being launched on cue from fans at the start of the second half of each of my concerts,” said Folds. “It’s the purest, most low-tech form of engagement that creates a special bond with my audiences.”
