MELBOURNE, Fla. – Don’t miss the chance to witness the incredible journey of legendary folk-rock duo Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel in the touring show, ‘The Simon and Garfunkel Story.’ This captivating production takes audiences through their humble beginnings, rise to fame as one of the best-selling music groups in the ’60s, and their dramatic split in 1970.
Starting its tour in the United Kingdom a decade ago, ‘The Simon and Garfunkel Story’ has been gaining popularity worldwide. With Brendan Jacob Smith as the singer portraying Art Garfunkel, audiences are in for an unforgettable experience. Smith has devoted the past three years to perfecting Garfunkel’s angelic voice, which he has admired since high school.
I’ve admired Art Garfunkel’s angelic voice for years and I feel very grateful to sing all of this incredible music every night, said Smith, who has put immense effort into studying Garfunkel’s vocals for this role. He has a very specific sound, and I always have to check back into the recordings of him singing before going on stage every night. His voice is very iconic, so I want to get it right.
One of the highlights of the show is the recreation of Simon and Garfunkel’s famous reunion concert in 1981. Smith’s favorite part is bringing the magic of that concert alive for the audience. The audience gets to experience what it would have been like to have seen that concert live. I love singing the song ‘Baby Driver’ in particular during that part of the show, he explained.
‘The Simon and Garfunkel Story’ promises a multimedia experience with videos, pictures, and original film footage, along with a live band performing all of Simon and Garfunkel’s beloved hits, including Mrs. Robinson, Cecilia, and Bridge Over Troubled Water.
