Ben Folds [ tickets ] will leave his band behind for a string of club dates dubbed Ben Folds and a Piano. The outing kicks off on Feb. 25 in Iowa, and will run for more than a month.

In a statement, Folds said that the foundation for his first solo tour was laid with a recent performance at New York's Bowery Ballroom. "I had a set list that was planned," Folds said. "But by the time the show was finished and I looked at what I had actually played, it had nothing to do with what I had planned. To me, that's the best kind of show."

"Still Fighting It," the second single from Folds' first solo album, "Rockin the Suburbs," has been added to VH1's playlist, according to Folds' publicist. It was shot and directed in Australia by wife Frally Hynes, and stars Folds with his young son, Louis.

"A friend of mine gave me some really good advice," Folds said in a statement. "He told me that the most important thing I could do with this video is make sure there was nothing fraudulent about it--that there was no acting, nothing set up, and nothing scripted. It's just an honest reflection of what the song is about."

Folds recently contributed a cover of the Beatles' "Golden Slumbers" to the motion picture soundtrack of "I Am Sam."
