2020 marks the 50th Anniversary of the Grammy Award winning album and song of the year, Bridge Over Troubled Water released in 1970 and the music of Paul Simon will be at Lochgelly Centre on Saturday February 29.
Paul Simon is a name that has cemented itself into the “hearts and bones” of audiences all over the world. As an artiste, his name has become synonymous, not only with music, but with cultural history.
In this brand-new 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.
After years of comparisons, Gary set out on a journey of discovery and for over two years, he lived and breathed all things Simon, creating a show which has received five-star reviews and standing ovations across the UK and has just completed a hugely successful run at Edinburgh Fringe receiving 4 star reviews across the board.
A natural storyteller, with charisma and a certain charm, Gary weaves together songs and stories that cross the Atlantic, from New Jersey to the North-west of England. He traces the sometimes- poignant moments in Simon’s life and career, that occasionally mirror his own.
