Following the overwhelming success of their 2023 tour, Jon Anderson and The Band Geeks announce their YES Epics & Classics tour. Like the 2023 tour, the set list will contain numerous YES songs from all stages of the band’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame career that feature Jon as their lead vocalist and songwriter. The tour also promises the introduction of new material created by Jon and The Band Geeks.
Jon Anderson is the voice of YES, one of the most creative and boundary-pushing bands to emerge from the prog rock scene of the ’70s and ’80s. Their hits include “I’ve Seen All Good People,” “Roundabout,” and “Owner Of A Lonely Heart,” as well as expansive, long-form works like “Close to the Edge,” “Awaken,” and “The Gates of Delirium.”
The Band Geeks began as the house band for the Band Geek podcast, an internet show created by Richie Castellano (Blue Öyster Cult). The band gained popularity on YouTube with their incredibly detailed recreations of music by artists like Queen, Toto, Black Sabbath and Yes, which have earned the Band Geeks over 30 million views.
