Emmy-nominated, multi-platinum-selling music artist Ben Folds has announced more summer shows are being added to the return of his popular “Paper Airplane Request Tour,” with new stops in all regions of the US.
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.
