Paul Simon will hit the road this spring, seven years after announcing that he would be forced to retire from touring due to hearing loss. He will bring his 2023 album Seven Psalms and other selections from his catalog across the breadth of North America for "A Quiet Celebration", a tour that includes five nights apiece at New York’s Beacon Theater and Los Angeles’ Walt Disney Concert Hall, as well as multiple nights in each of more than a dozen other cities.


The announcement follows Simon’s surprise appearance on SNL50: The Anniversary Special, where he performed with Sabrina Carpenter on his old Simon & Garfunkel classic “Homeward Bound.”
