YES—Steve Howe, Geoff Downes, Jon Davison, Billy Sherwood, and Jay Schellen—are proud to announce their 24th studio album AURORA will be released on June 12 via InsideOutMusic/Sony Music. As Howe explains: “Making this record was joyful, a chance to play, explore and give everything to the music. It’s always been about collaboration, somebody can write a song, but until everybody puts their contribution in it isn’t really a Yes song. We’re not trying to echo the past; we’re carrying the spirit of Yes forward and turning it into something new.”
The band have also launched the first single from the album, with a beautiful animated video for the title track, created by Matt Hutchings (Greg Lake, Oasis, Iron Maiden), posted here: https://youtu.be/ETEGJTM6plw
