Benson Boone Plays One of His Biggest Shows at Quebec’s FEQ Fest, Admits Even He Doesn’t Know What ‘Moonbeam Ice Cream’ Is

Benson Boone ‘s rapid rise reached its apex this weekend at one of the biggest concert stages in North America: the Plains of Abraham mainstage at Festival d’été de Québec (FEQ) in Quebec City.
