Harper James Simon is an American singer, songwriter, producer and the son of musician Paul Simon and Paul's first wife, Peggy Harper.

With the psychedelic country and rock music of the late 1960s and 70s as inspiration, Harper's self titled debut is an assembly of some of music's most accomplished players to realize his vision of a record that pays homage to the LP, a format that is currently being threatened by the digital age. "The long playing album is not just ten songs thrown together randomly," says Harper. "It has an arc. It has a structure. It is the attempt to make ten songs that are all as good as each other, and fit together in a seamless whole."

What Harper achieves is a vivid and even haunting reminder of how much an album can still mean today.
