In a pitch-perfect recreation of the unmistakeable folk-rock sound of Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel, highly-talented guitarists Thomas Wacker and Thorsten Gary celebrate the stellar success and lasting impact of the American duo who reinvented folk music in the 1960s and caught the flavour of the social revolution that swept through a generation.
First and foremost composers of nostalgic and melancholic ballads, Simon & Garfunkel also embraced jazz beats and bossa nova rhythms, in a series of brilliant and iconic songs that became Grammy-winning worldwide hits and created the backdrop to an era. Celebrated for their sensitivity and virtuoso guitar-playing, Thomas Wacker and Thorsten Gary have been acclaimed at more than 450 concerts across Europe for their flawless rendition of Simon & Garfunkel classics.
This tribute features a string of hits, including Mrs Robinson (famously featured on the soundtrack of The Graduate), The Boxer, Cecilia, classic album tracks such as Baby Driver and Keep the Customer Satisfied, the ethereal Bridge over Troubled Water and, unforgettably, The Sound of Silence, the eternal anthem of haunted adolescence – songs with stories, coming from the heart, that all have something to tell.
