Rick Wakeman was the keyboardist with the band YES for a total of 12 years, vocalist Jon Anderson was in the band for 36 years, and guitarist, keyboardist, and vocalist Trevor Rabin was also in for 12 years. The trio, who had played together in probably the most important and influential progressive-rock band of the genre, started working on material in 2010. It wasn’t until last year, however, that they officially announced that the band was actively underway.
The current tour began in October 2016 and from March to April it takes in Israel, Europe, and Japan under the title An Evening of YES Music and More. The set list covers a 20-year span of music from the self-titled 1971 YES album through to the 1991 Union.
In an interview last year, Jon Anderson said, “We’re elevating it into the 21st century musically and dynamically…we love YES music.”
