Simon´s latest disc, ´Surprise,´ marries his trademark melodic and
lyrical sensibility with lush electronic textures, courtesy of Brian
Eno. Preparing for Simon´s summer tour, his veteran band plans nine
weeks of rehearsals to translate the new sound to the stage. ´Not only
will those sounds be in the new songs, we´re using them as a palette,´
says guitarist Mark Stewart. ´Environmental sounds are even finding
their way into Slip Slidin´ Away.´
