Gary Stewart presents Graceland 40thAnniversary Celebration
Scottish singer songwriter Gary Stewart and his versatile six-piece band have been delighting audiences far and wide with their faithful rendition of Paul Simon’s classic album, ‘Graceland’. Originally formed in 2015 for a performance at Underneath the Stars Festival, Gary and his band have steadily been performing shows at venues and Festivals across the U.K and beyond (including a sell-out performance at York Barbican in December 2024) for almost a decade.
2026 marks the 40th Anniversary of Graceland and the York-based troubadour and fellow musicians are gearing up for a busy year commemorating the anniversary, delighting audiences old and new with the beloved South African rhythms, melodies and harmonies that made this Album a universal classic.
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. Joe Rusby – Underneath the Stars Festival
We saw this show live at Costa Festival in Portugal in2024, the whole place was swaying and smiling. Gary and his amazing band beautifully re-create that warm, soulful Graceland Vibe – Debs Earl, Folk in the Barn
