One-Trick Pony | Paul Simon in the 1970's

Paul Simon crafted an album that has become a cult obsession for many musicians and music fans around the world, called One Trick Pony!

In 1980, on the back of his Grammy award winning album Still Crazy After All These Years, Paul Simon made a film about the touring musician’s life, using his studio band. At the peak of his explorations into jazz, funk and fusion, ‘One Trick Pony’ was born. Featuring a legendary line up of sophisticated groove players with heavy jazz credentials (Steve Gadd, Richard Tee, Eric Gale, Tony Levin etc.), the album had a major single “Late In The Evening” which gave Simon’s already much decorated career another hit, a feat not repeated until his iconic Graceland album of the mid 80s.

For this show an all-star band has been put together to capture the sound of Paul Simon from 1975 – 1980. The vibe of this particular band is a unique marriage of evocative poetry mixed with funk and jazz.

Featuring special guest vocalists Rebecca Barnard, Troy McMillin, Janine Maunder and Paul Williamson who all share a deep love of this period of Simon’s career, the concert will also include some other tunes from Still Crazy and the late 70s Paul Simon Songbook. A MUST SEE!
