World’s greatest prog rock band YES to hit UK in November



After a hugely successful American tour with Styx, the world’s most quintessential prog rock band YES is ready to hit the UK in support of new album ‘Fly From Here’ with 8 memorable shows.The tour marks the return of keyboard player Geoff Downes, joining guitarist Steve Howe, bassist Chris Squire, drummer Alan White, and lead singer Benoit David.

‘Fly From Here’, the latest studio effort from YES – the first in ten years – was welcomed enthusiastically by fans and critics alike. Trevor Horn was back on the producer’s seat for the occasion, and Guitarist Magazine gave the album five stars, calling it ‘a positive delight’.

Proud of their new creation as much as they are of their legendary past, YES will perform tracks from ‘Fly From Here’ as well as timeless hits from albums ‘Drama’, ‘Fragile’, ‘Close To The Edge’ and ‘90125’. The band’s prolific back catalogue is a showcase of powerful progressive compositions, which have influenced generations of musicians and pushed
the cutting edge of art-rock music to its limits.

Chris Squire says “We’re looking forward to performing new music live and sharing the
experience with our fans.”


Between the unforgettable classics expected on the set list is the group’s popular single “Owner of a Lonely Heart” and ‘Roundabout’, a seminal hit that, from Howe’s signature guitar work to Squire’s bass-line approach to the use of synthesizers and sound effects, contributed to crown YES as major pioneers of the genre.

With an array of timeless songs this undoubtedly promises to be an evening of music not to be missed.
