I never thought a Paul Simon song would sound well in the bluegrass idiom, but it does!
Here you have the best of both worlds, a Paul Simon classic sung by a beautiful blonde with a great voice:

Two lovey women with fine voices singing a ballad, telling a story in song with great musicians backing them up. The only way it could have been better would've been to be there in the audience!
Also worth a listen:

The video quality on this recording is outstanding. I can put it on full screen and it is still crystal clear. I have watched it five times tonight and it just gets better and better.
Lately I have been enamored with Jewel's voice. Wish she would do more bluegrass and traditional country.
If you can't feel the music; it's only pink noise!
At 2:21, the guitar player says something to the female singer and she makes a very annoyed * expression.
That guitar player is Paul Simon's son, Harper Simon.
All the members of that band look like the men and women who live in my neighborhood or go to my church.
That guy on the dobro is on fire!
