Paul Simon

In March 2015, Paul Simon was navigating a vibrant phase in his career, marked by his collaborative tour with Sting. Prior to this live recording, Simon had released his album "So Beautiful or So What" in 2011, which was notable for its reflective, mature themes and rich musical tapestry. This collaboration with Sting during the "On Stage Together Tour" brought together two iconic artists from different musical backgrounds, blending Simon's folk-rock roots with Sting's pop and reggae influences. Their performance of "That Was Your Mother" not only showcased their musical synergy but also highlighted Simon's ability to reinterpret his classic songs in fresh contexts. Both artists, with their extensive catalogs, provided audiences with a nostalgic journey through their respective hits, while this particular performance in Zurich emphasized the enduring appeal of Simon's storytelling prowess.
