BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — Five For Fighting will bring its full band to Buffalo on August 8 for a show at the downtown Electric City venue.

Of the 24 concerts on the tour, nine will be in New York State, with Buffalo being the first. Other venues on the Empire State tour include Tarrytown, Homer, Saratoga Springs, Corning, Bethel, Oneonta, Bethlehem and Port Washington.

The first half of the tour will be played with the full band, and for the second half, frontman John Ondrasik will be accompanied by a string quartet.

“It’s always a pleasure for me to play with such incredible musicians,” Ondrasik said in a recent statement. “We’re looking forward to playing songs that people know and love, as well as some of the newer songs like OK (We Are Not Ok) and telling a few stories along the way.”
