Something About Simon heading to Edinburgh Fringe
A new show celebrating the life and music of legendary US
singer/songwriter Paul Simon will be performed at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe.
Something About Simon stars Gary Edward Jones and will be showcased
at the Assembly Rooms throughout August.
Hailing from Liverpool,
Jones comes across as a natural storyteller, weaving together songs and stories
tracing the sometimes-poignant moments in Paul Simon’s life and career that
occasionally mirror his own.
Music highlights include
classic ballads like The Sound of Silence, America, Kathy’s Song and
Bridge Over Troubled Waters, to the more upbeat Me And Julio,
50 Ways To Leave Your Loverand Wristband.
Performer Gary Edward Jones
commented: “We’ve
received a wonderful response to announcing the show for Bolton that we just
had to add more North West dates, and we’re excited now include Crewe and North
Wales.
“This is a great opportunity
to really showcase Something About Simon before taking the show to the
Edinburgh Fringe – which promises to be an incredible experience.”
Something About Simon will be at the Assembly Rooms. 54 George Street, Edinburgh from 31 July to 26 August 2019. Tickets here:
