Paul Simon
Paul Simon returns with his 13th solo studio album and first since 2011's So Beautiful or So What. Stranger has been co-produced by his longtime collaborator Roy Halee and features the first single "Wristband." Simon says "sound is the theme of this album," and sessions featured dance and flamenco artists as well as inspiration from 20th century composer/theorist Harry Partch (maker of custom instruments in microtonal tunings). Stranger to Stranger is available in standard and deluxe editions on CD; vinyl and DD versions will also be available.
