Paul Simon — A Quiet Celebration Tour

Paul Simon announced a 2026 summer tour across the US and Canada, extending his widely praised A Quiet Celebration Tour following last year’s critically acclaimed run.

Inspired by the warmth of audience response and the intimate spirit of the performances, Simon will bring the show to some of North America’s most iconic outdoor venues.

The concert is presented in two parts. The first half features a full performance of Seven Psalms, Simon’s 33-minute continuous composition hailed by Variety as “quietly stunning… unlike any other Simon album,” and praised by Rock Cellar as “a stunning achievement from an artist with a career full of them.”

After a brief intermission, Simon returns to the stage for a career-spanning set that blends beloved classics with deep cuts, highlighting the remarkable breadth of his catalog.

The touring band includes: Edie Brickell (vocals), Mark Stewart (guitar), Bakithi Kumalo (bass), Andy Snitzer (saxophone), Jamey Haddad (percussion), Mick Rossi (piano, keys), Gyan Riley (guitar), Matt Chamberlin (drums), Nancy Stagnitta (flute), Caleb Burhans (viola), and Eugene Friesen (cello).
