Send to a FriendOn May 9, Warner Bros. Records will release ‘Surprise,’ the new studio album by Paul Simon and his first release since 2000. Produced by Simon, and in collaboration with Brian Eno, the album contains some of Simon’s best songwriting and performances since the ‘Graceland’ album.

Says Paul Simon: "Working with Brian Eno opens the door to a world of sonic possibilities; plus he's just a great guy to hang with in the studio, or for that matter in life. I had a really good time."
‘Surprise’ features Simon’s masterful voice, and showcases some of his finest guitar work to date. Augmented by Eno’s innovative soundscapes, ‘Surprise’ includes contributions from musicians including Steve Gadd, Herbie Hancock, and Bill Frisell.
‘Surprise’ was mixed by Tchad Blake, and recorded at Eno’s studio in London as well as studios in New York and Nashville. The album features 11 songs, including the previously Oscar-nominated “Father And Daughter.”
Paul Simon has already confirmed his first appearance for the new album: he and his band will cap off the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival with a headlining show at the Acura stage on Sunday, May 7th. He is also scheduled to appear on Saturday Night Live May 13th. Tour plans are currently in the works for both summer and fall, please check paulsimon.com for announcements and details.
