THE PAUL SIMON STORY The UK’s no.1 Paul Simon tribute band “Shades of Simon” will be bringing their highly acclaimed 2 hour show “The Paul Simon Story” to the National Trust's Flatford Mill for the 3rd year running in March 2025. The show has an engaging narration telling the story of Paul Simon as one of the best songwriters of his generation, with the outstanding 5-piece band performing authentic renditions of the best of his songs from his time in Simon & Garfunkel in the 60’s (Homeward Bound, Sound of Silence, Bridge over troubled water etc.) through to his South African inspired Graceland tour in the 80’s (You can call me Al.) The band are in high demand and performances have received rave reviews at venues ranging from the majestic Knebworth House, picnic concerts for the National Trust, to provincial theatres throughout the East of England. The concert will be held in the gardens at the National Trust Flatford Mill adjoining the River Stour against the backdrop of the wonderful 18th Century Old Granary building. It is suggested people bring their own picnic food and drink plus garden chairs or rugs. In addition, the National Trust cafe will be open for tea, coffee and snacks and bottled alcoholic drinks. Toilet facilities available nearby. Please do not bring dogs, it is not a suitable environment for them, or for babies & young children. Any children must be closely supervised at all times and kept well away from the river. The concert should finish around 9:30pm. It'll just be getting dark by then so we recommend you bring a torch! This is an open air event and the concert will go ahead whatever the weather, so please come suitably prepared! Free parking available after 5pm in the National Trust car park approx 200 yards from the Gardens. Gates open 6:00pm. Concert starts 7:00pm
