The Simon & Garfunkel Songbook

AN EVENING OF SONGS & STORIES
Presented by Aztec Two-Step 2.0

Narration by Tony Traguardo

This uniquely entertaining and multimedia stage show chronicles the iconic career of Simon & Garfunkel. The music speaks for itself and is anchored by Rex Fowler, co-founder of the renowned folk/rock duo Aztec Two-Step. Rex is joined by his wife, Dodie Pettit, on lead guitar, keyboards, and vocals. Dodie was a Principal Dancer for the American Repertory Dance Company, which led to a distinguished 15-year career on Broadway as an original cast member of The Phantom of the Opera, as well as appearing in Tony Award-winning musicals CATS and Titanic. Multi-instrumentalist/vocalist Steven Roues and drummer/percussionist/vocalist Peter Hohmeister round out the band.

The show’s storyline was created by Pete Fornatale, the late great pioneer of progressive FM radio and author of Simon & Garfunkel’s Bookends biography. Now narrating, emceeing, and manning the scintillating multimedia show is WCWP radio host Tony Traguardo, co-founder of the Long Island Music Hall of Fame. Nostalgia and laughter abound, and a sing-a-long is always in the mix.

“The band, the accompanying multimedia, and narration, the entire show simply put, was sensational!”
– Lee Bell, Senior Director, The Kravis Center, West Palm Beach, FL

“The entire production – the cast and the show with its exquisite music, storytelling, and stunning special effects were absolutely superb!”
– Gail Anderson, Artistic Director, Surflight Theater, Beach Haven, NJ

“Much more than a night of nostalgia, Aztec Two-Step invite you into their living room for a personal retrospective on the music that influenced them – and an entire generation. A big winner and not just because they sold our place out.”
– David Lavalley. Director, Center for Arts, Natick, MA

“Audience favorite Aztec Two-Step wowed our venue with the premiere of their Simon & Garfunkel Songbook concert. On a warm Thanksgiving weekend, a sell-out crowd sang along nostalgically to S&G hits like Cecilia, Mrs. Robinson, and Hazy Shade of Winter to name just a few. There was an amazing atmosphere created from the combined love for Aztec Two-Step and the S&G canon that simply made the evening.”
– Scott Sheldon, Director, Sanctuary Concerts, Chatham, NJ
