Ben Rector: Songs for America
Overview
Singer-songwriter Ben Rector brings his latest musical celebration, “Songs for America”, to the Oregon Symphony stage for a heartfelt performance of the places and stories that shape us. Known for his irresistibly charming stage presence and undeniable songwriting chops, Rector brings a collection of original songs that blend golden-era pop, Broadway flair, and modern hymn-like soul. With a career that’s propelled him around the country for the last 15 years, join us for a musical respite from the idea that more separates us than binds us in our shared and varied experience of calling America home.
