The guys of Ben Folds Five are on an amazing run right now. Their new album, The Sound Of The Life Of The Mind, sold 30,000 copies in its first week of release. The video for the single “Do It Anyway” features characters from Fraggle Rock and is pushing towards 1,000,000 views in just a couple of weeks. They’re on a national tour right now and, to cap it off, on Monday night they were the rare musical guests on The Colbert Report on Comedy Central. Take a look at their interview with Stephen Colbert as well as their performance of the single below…
