\u201cCake are masters, and they happen to be my friends,\u201d Folds said in a statement. \u201cSo, yes, let\u2019s do this!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe had so much fun with Ben last summer that we decided to do it again, this time in the west,\u201d said Cake frontman John McRea. Multi-instrumentalist Vince DiFiore added, \u201cLast year we had the great honor to tour with Ben, who inspired us with incredible musicianship and memorable songs. It was sad to end that tour, so now a great thrill to be anticipating another with the actual artistic advisor to the National Symphony Orchestra.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Folds\u2019 summer itinerary also includes a string of dates with Violent Femmes<\/a> and the July 30th release of his upcoming memoir, A Dream About Lightning Bugs \u2013 A Life Of Music And Cheap Lessons<\/em>. Before each date of the Cake tour, the singer-songwriter will host VIP events where he\u2019ll sign copies, conduct a masterclass and host a Q&A.<\/span><\/p>\n
