Simon & Garfunkel reflected and defined the mood of the 60s. Their music remains timeless, etched in the memories of those they touched at the time, and the generations since who have discovered their songs.
With their impeccable musicianship, and record sales in excess of 70 million, they are arguably the greatest vocal duo of all time.
John Robertson and Mark Shelley’s performance of Simon & Garfunkel - The Concert is inspired by the remarkable reunion concert in Central Park, New York.
It’s a fun, nostalgic and story filled performance that will touch you and transport you back to where you were, what you felt, and who you were with when you first heard their music.
For those of us who lived through those times, though, hearing their songs never fails to bring back certain moments in our own lives – and with startling vividness.
Showcasing more than 20 of these hit songs, Robertson and Shelley will perform all the favourites, including The Boxer, Bridge Over Troubled Water, Feelin’ Groovy, Me & Julio, Homeward Bound, Scarborough Fair, America, and Sounds of Silence.
You are guaranteed to relive the times, the songs, the music and those wonderful harmonies!
Shelley & Robertson have been one of Australia’s top duos for more than two decades. Their vocal harmonies, musicianship and humour recreate the magic of the songs, sounds and times that were Simon & Garfunkel.
Backed by their stunning band, you will indeed be singing along right through this performance at The Capital on Friday, May 22.
