Former bass player of the alternative rock band Incubus, Ben Kenney, will hit the road in a limited run of club dates this August and September. The eight intimate shows will feature music from Kenney’s six solo albums as well as his upcoming untitled album due this fall. The tour kicks off in New York at Nublu and will wrap in Los Angeles. Fans of Incubus will get the unique chance to see the former bass player in a different light as lead vocalist and guitarist of his touring trio. In his solo music, Kenney, “tries to step outside my comfort zone and make music that does not exist, yet.” This tour brings him back to his “happy place after a long and difficult [health] journey” over the past few years. Kenney's solo music is a masterful blend of funk from his stint with The Roots, his East Coast punk days, and his more recent tenure in the indie rock world.
