YES have announced a U.S. tour, called The Fragile Tour 2025, The Album Series, for this fall.
This "evening with YES" trek launches on October 1st in Wallingford, Connecticut, and wraps up on November 16th in Reno, Nevada. Tickets go on sale June 13th. For ticketing information, visit www.yesworld.com.
At these shows, the progressive rock titans will perform their iconic Fragile album in its entirety along with classics cuts from their legendary body of work. The multi-platinum album features their signature songs "Roundabout," "Long Distance Runaround," and "Heart of the Sunrise."
Fragile, the band's fourth studio album, was released in the U.K. in November 1971 and in the U.S. in January 1972. The Fragile Tour is regarded as a key moment in YES' history — it's when the band became a headlining act in the US.
"All the band's albums had a unique feel and approach," says YES guitarist and backing vocalist Steve Howe. "After 'The Yes Album,' so many things came together, with [co-producer] Eddie Offord steering the proceedings. While the band focused on only four main songs with full arrangements, each of us wrote and designed a solo piece, which was Bill [Bruford]'s great idea."
"It's fairly 'odd-ball,' but we were at the height of our creativity, determined for success." Howe adds. "It gave us confidence, further than our own in-stock belief, we'd crafted this unusual but noticeable musical twist to rock and what later became prog."
During the Fragile Tour 2025, YES will perform in front of a video wall featuring AI treatment of Roger Dean's art. Roger Dean art will be available in the merch area at all the shows.
Roger Dean designed many of YES' album covers, including that of Fragile.
"Roger was and is quintessential to the look of YES," notes Howe. "He's still creating great paintings and design—he has no competition."
