PAUL SIMON

It’s hard to believe that legendary singer/songwriter
Paul Simon is retiring from live shows with this “Homeward Bound – the Farewell Tour”.
Simon, commenting on his farewell tour said, “I’ve often wondered what it would feel like to reach the point where I’d consider bringing my performing career to a natural end. Now I know: it feels a little unsettling, a touch exhilarating and something of a relief. I love making music, my voice is still strong, and my band is a tight, extraordinary group of gifted musicians. I think about music constantly. I am very grateful for a fulfilling career and, of course, most of all to the audiences who heard something in my music that touched their hearts.”
If you’ve never seen Simon & Garfunkel or Simon solo, this is your final chance.

Singer/songwriter
JoJo is headlining the Fine Line Music Café on Friday. Jojo writes, “You have no idea how excited I am to sing these songs live for the very first time Leaks. Covers. & Mixtapes. This tour is especially for everyone who rocked with me when my hands were tied and my voice was silenced… thought it’d be mad fun to perform these songs since they were such a massive part of my life and you have always shown such passion for them. I wanted to keep the shows small and intimate so… get your tix now baebs. I miss seeing you up close and I want to get that connection that inspires me so much while I’m working on NEW material for my next project.”
