Graceland

Formed in 2016 to play Kate Rusby’s Underneath the Stars Festival, Gary Stewart’s Graceland are a seven-piece ensemble that faithfully recreate Paul Simon’s 1986 classic album in all its’ glory. With layers of guitars and percussion, bouncy accordion, vocal harmonies and many a bass solo, Gary and his band bring the South African rhythms and harmonies to life in concert halls and Festivals all around the U.K.

“Gary Stewart & his band masterfully recreated not just the sound of Paul Simon’s Graceland album but also the energy and soul that makes the original recording such a huge joy to listen to. An ambitious and wonderful feat to achieve in a live performance.” Underneath the Stars Festival
