If you took the rich harmonies of the Everly Brothers and matched it with the lyricism of Bob Dylan, the result might be Simon & Garfunkel.

Often considered the thinking person’s rock and rollers, they were also one of the most successful musical acts of the 1960s.

‘The History of Simon and Garfunkel’ will be showcased at the Byron library from 6-7 p.m. Thursday, April 16.

Using audio and visual, the program will trace the arc of Simon & Garfunkel’s career from their surprise teenybopper hit “Hey Schoolgirl” to the folk-rock classic “Sound of Silence” to the ever popular “Mrs. Robinson” to the majesty of “Bridge Over Troubled Water.”

Registration is required; call the library at 815-234-5107 to register.
