Paul Simon Announces New Record, Live Dates

Legendary American singer-songwriter Paul Simon has announced that his new album So Beautiful or So What will be released on June 13th through Hear Music/Concord Music Group.

Jointly produced by himself and Phil Ramone, the ten track album – his 12th solo studio release – sees a more structured, harmonious approach than we might expect from the previously beat-driven artist.

“Since ‘Graceland’, I’ve always made the record based on either making the tracks or the percussion first,” Simon told Rolling Stone. “This time the stimuli was a guitar in my lap. That takes me back to ‘Still Crazy After All These Years’ or ‘Something So Right’.”

Simon will be playing a number of live shows in the UK in June/July to support the release, stopping in at Nottingham, Glasgow, Bournemouth, London, Birmingham and Manchester. More information can be found at Paul Simon's website (link).
