Ben Folds talks music with Stereogum
"...he has seemingly achieved everything a musician could ever hope to do."
Folds never has to release another album again if he doesn’t feel like it. At 56, he has seemingly achieved everything a musician could ever hope to do, and then some: played in bands, established a successful solo career, collaborated with fellow entertainers, composed for TV and film, and even appeared in TV and film — much of which he chronicled in his 2019 memoir A Dream About Lightning Bugs: A Life Of Music And Cheap Lessons.
