Newmyer Flyer Presents Bleecker Street: A Tribute - The Simon & Garfunkel Songbook

Featuring; Kipyn Martin, Heather Lloyd, Tom Lofgren, Mark Lofgren, Tom Fridrich & Ronnie Newmyer

One of popular music’s most successful partnerships, Simon & Garfunkel’s music captured the emotions of the 1960s like no other artist. Paul Simon's intelligent, incisive and sometimes playful lyrics were wrapped in hauntingly beautiful melodies graced by Art Garfunkel’s angelic harmonies. The effect went straight to the listener's heart and left you with plenty to think on as you hummed along to Simons catchy hooks

Simon & Garfunkel’s 1966 smash hits Sounds of Silence, Homeward Bound and I Am a Rock were cornerstones of the emerging “folk -rock” sound. Their popularity soared, as did their artistic vision, when their songs including Mrs. Robinson and Scarborough Fair were featured prominently in the soundtrack to The Graduate. 1970’s Bridge Over Troubled Water album featuring The Boxer, Cecelia and The Only Living Boy in New York saw them sweeping the Grammy Awards and cementing their place in music history.

Kipyn Martin & Heather Lloyd are two of the finest singers and most popular performers in the regional folk scene. Tom Lofgren has been an essential part of most of brother Nils bands, and Mark Lofgren has been wowing audiences as one of the vocal cornerstones of Grin Again. Tom Fridrich and Ronnie Newmyer are the rhythm section to round out the band.
