Paul Simon is a name that has cemented itself into the 'hearts and bones' of audiences all over the world.
In this critically acclaimed show, singer-songwriter Gary Edward Jones not only recites the music of one of his idols, but also tells the unique story of Paul Simon combining visuals, stage design and, of course... the music.
With classic ballads like The Sound of Silence, America and Kathy's Song, to the more upbeat Wristband and The Boxer, to the much-loved Bridge Over Troubled Water, the show will have you both reliving and rediscovering these great songs.
