Simon & Garfunkel

From the folk-rock explosion of the 1960s, Simon & Garfunkel quickly rose to the top of the charts with a winning combination of catchy, lyrically articulate songs and rich vocal harmonies. Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel, childhood friends from the New York borough of Queens, created a body of work that resonated far beyond their generation and long after their partnership ended, thanks to immortal songs like “The Sound Of Silence,” “A Hazy Shade Of Winter,” “Mrs. Robinson,” “The Boxer” and “Bridge Over Troubled Water.” They’ve influenced everyone from James Taylor to Fleet Foxes and have been covered by artists as diverse as Aretha Franklin and Disturbed.
