Singer-songwriter Paul Simon returns to the road this summer, extending his “A Quiet Celebration Tour” across North American venues. The 2026 leg kicks off June 4 at Frost Amphitheater in Palo Alto and includes stops at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, RBC Amphitheater in Toronto, Forest Hills Stadium in New York and FirstBank Amphitheatre in Franklin before wrapping with a two-night stand at Ravinia in Highland Park, Illinois. Tickets for the shows go on sale February 6 and are available at paulsimon.com. Simon’s show consists of two parts, opening with his Grammy-nominated 33-minute album ‘Seven Psalms’, followed by a brief intermission and performances of his iconic hits and deep cuts.
He will be backed by a full band that includes Edie Brickell on vocals, Mark Stewart on guitar, Bakithi Kumalo on bass, Andy Snitzer on saxophone, Jamey Haddad on percussion, Mick Rossi on piano and keys, Gyan Riley on guitar, Matt Chamberlin on drums, Nancy Stagnitta on flute, Caleb Burhans on viola and Eugene Friesen on cello.
