Simon and Garfunkel are an American popular music duo comprising Paul Simon and Arthur "Art" Garfunkel. They met in highschool in 1957 where they formed the group Tom and Jerry. They had their first taste of success with the minor hit "Hey Schoolgirl." As Simon and Garfunkel, the duo rose to fame in 1965 backed by the hit single "The Sound of Silence". Their music was featured on the landmark film, The Graduate, propelling them further into the public consciousness. They are well known for their close harmonies and sometimes unstable relationship. Their last album, Bridge over Troubled Water, was marked with several delays caused by artistic differences. Simon and Garfunkel were among the most popular recording artists of the 1960s, and are best known for their songs "The Sound of Silence," "Mrs. Robinson", and "Bridge over Troubled Water". They have received several Grammys and are inductees of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
They have reunited on several occasions since their break-up, most famously for The Concert in Central Park, which attracted 500,000 people.
