It’s not exactly Simon and Garfunkel, but it’s arguably more interesting.

Paul Simon and Sting have announced that they will hit the road together next February and March, for a limited concert tour of North America dubbed Paul Simon and Sting: On Stage Together.

The two songwriters traded harmonies earlier this year at a benefit for the Robin Hood Foundation, performing acoustic versions of “The Boxer” and Sting’s “Fields of Gold.”

18 dates have been planned February 8th through March 16th, including a March 4th stop at New York’s Madison Square Garden. Details will come shortly, and more dates may be added soon.

“Paul and I both share this abiding curiosity about music and where it’s going,” Sting told the New York Times. “We don’t really know where this is going. We don’t really have a clue how this is going to pan out.”

Pre-sales will take place Wednesday November 6 and Tuesday Nov 12, beginning 10am local time, on Paulsimon.com.
