Read full details
Jon Anderson, the legendary voice of Yes, brings his celebrated collaboration with The Band Geeks to Nottingham for an evening of progressive rock classics. The Band Geeks, founded by Richie Castellano, originally gained attention for their meticulous online covers of Yes songs, which led to a partnership with Anderson in 2023. Together, they have toured extensively across the US and released the acclaimed album *True* in 2024, followed by the live album *Live - Perpetual Change* in 2025.
Attendees can expect a setlist drawn from Yes's classic 1970s era, performed with the precision that earned the band praise from *Classic Rock Magazine* as "ridiculously good." The Band Geeks' lineup features Castellano on bass and backing vocals, drummer Andy Ascolese, guitarists Andy Graziano and Rob Schmoll, and keyboardists Christopher Clark and Robert Kipp. Their performances faithfully recreate the intricate arrangements of Yes's golden age.
This concert offers a rare opportunity to hear Anderson's unmistakable vocals alongside a band that has mastered the Yes idiom. With a second studio album announced for 2026, the collaboration continues to evolve.
