Paul Simon has released "Wristband," the first single from his upcoming 13th studio album, Stranger to Stranger.

For the record Simon worked with composer and inventor Harry Partch, who is known for his collection of custom made instruments.

Simon also worked with the Italian producer Clap! Clap! and a group of Flamenco musicians.

"Sound is the theme of this album as much as it's about the subjects of the individual songs," Simon says in a press release.

"If people get that, I'll be pleased. The right song at the right time can live for generations. A beautiful sound - well, that's forever."

Stranger to Stranger is the follow up to 2011's So Beautiful or So What.
