Ben Folds’ titular Five have announced their first tour in 14 years. The trio—Folds, Robert Sledge, Darren Jessee—are set to rock nine suburbs cities across the South next spring, with more stops to be announced. The full slate can be found below.
Folds founded the Five alongside Sledge and Jessee in 1993 in Chapel Hill, North Carolina (they referred to themselves as five instead of three was because it sounded better). Earlier this year, the band released a shelved version of their first album for its almost 30th anniversary.
