Paul Simon, Who Retired From Concerts Seven Years Ago, Will Return With Intimate ‘Quiet Celebration Tour’ in 2025


Paul Simon, who did a 2018 farewell tour, announced new tour dates for 2025, focused on his 'Seven Psalms' album, following his 'SNL50' appearance.

On the heels of opening the “ SNL50 ” special Sunday night in a duet with Sabrina Carpenter, Paul Simon revealed Tuesday that he is un-retiring from live concerts, announcing his first road outing since what was billed as his farewell tour back in 2018, albeit with more “intimate” arrangements and locations than the bigger tours of old. The “Quiet Celebration Tour” will take place in mid-sized theaters and concert halls and be focused around his most recent album, the acoustically based “Seven Psalms,” although it will include other selections from his vast catalog. The band will include Caleb Burhans (viola), Jamey Haddad (percussion), Gyan Riley (guitar), Mick Rossi (piano, keys), Andy Snitzer (saxophone), Nancy Stagnita (flute), Mark Stewart (guitar) and Eugene Friesen (Cello).
