“Very excited to announce the release of the video for the track ‘A Living Island’ from ‘The Quest’”, says Geoff Downes. “It is a combination of a few ideas I had that (singer) Jon (Davison) developed beautifully, and it is a most fitting end track to the album complete with its majestic finale. Also, very proud that I’ve contributed another piece of music that has been added into the prestigious Yes canon.”
Released last October, “The Quest” was recorded across the globe: the sessions took place in the UK with Downes, Davison and Steve Howe, while Alan White and Billy Sherwood got together in the studio in the US.
"Much of the music was written in late 2019 with the rest in 2020,” adds Howe. “We commissioned several orchestrations to augment and enhance the overall sound of these fresh new recordings, hoping that our emphasis on melody, coupled with some expansive instrumental solo breaks, keeps up the momentum for our listeners.”
Yes are scheduled to launch a 2022 tour in Lisbon, Portugal on May 12.
