Fly From Here

So apparently there's a new Yes album coming out this year called Fly From Here.

Lineup:
Benoît David
Chris Squire
Steve Howe
Alan White
Geoff Downes

Benoît David has taken over Jon Anderson's role as lead singer on tour, I think Jon is out for the count after some asthma problems. This is David's first studio album recorded with Yes.

You may recognize the rest of the lineup as Drama-era, Geoff Downes is replacing Rick Wakeman's son Oliver on keyboard. And Trevor Horn is producing the album and also contributing vocals.

The title track on the album, We Can Fly From Here, was originally written for Drama but left off the album.



Oh, and Roger Dean will be contributing artwork for the cover.

I'm kinda excited.

Re: Fly From Here

If you've never heard Benoit David sing, he's not terrible on Jon Anderson's parts. He was in a Yes tribute band and discovered on YouTube, similar to Arnel Pineda in Journey and then invited to join the lineup on tour.

Check out Oliver Wakeman too, he looks JUST LIKE his dad.
