Paul Simon is coming to The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park! The legendary singer-songwriter has announced plans for a US and Canada summer tour as he extends his "A Quiet Celebration Tour," following a highly successful and critically acclaimed US tour last year. The experience was so encouraging that Simon was inspired to expand and play in some of the best outdoor summer venues in North America.
The show will be in two parts, opening with the performance of the Grammy-nominated masterpiece Seven Psalms. This beautiful 33-minute continuous piece of music was heralded by the press worldwide – Variety called it "Quietly stunning...unlike any other Simon album" and Rock Cellar hailed it as “a stunning achievement from an artist with a career full of them.” After a brief intermission, the show will resume with Simon performing many of his greatest hits and many deep cuts celebrating the breadth of his career.
The tour will begin on June 4 in Palo Alto, CA with dates at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park in San Diego, Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, CO, Tanglewood in Lenox, MA, Forest Hills Stadium in Forest Hills, NY and ending at Ravinia in Highland Park, IL July 18. The band will include: Edie Brickell (vocals), Mark Stewart (guitar), Bakithi Kumalo (bass), Andy Snitzer (saxophone), Jamey Haddad (percussion), Mick Rossi (piano, keys), Gyan Riley (guitar), Matt Chamberlin (drums), Nancy Stagnitta (flute), Caleb Burhans (viola) and Eugene Friesen (cello).
