An Evening of Yes Music and More is an ongoing worldwide concert tour by the rock band Yes Featuring Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin and Rick Wakeman, formed by lead vocalist Jon Anderson, guitarist Trevor Rabin and keyboardist Rick Wakeman, all former members of the English rock band Yes. Launched ten months after the group officially announced their formation, the tour has visited theatres, halls, and arenas across North America and Europe since 4 October 2016. Dates in Japan elsewhere are scheduled for April 2017.
The name of the tour is a reference to An Evening of Yes Music Plus, a live album by Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe, an older band which also consisted of former Yes members, and which Anderson and Wakeman were members of.
The tour began on 4 October 2016 under the name Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin and Rick Wakeman and should last until the end of summer 2017. The band started using the new name of Yes Featuring Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin and Rick Wakeman on the early 2017 tour leg, and then launched the new name in April to promote the North American summer tour.
Additional touring musicians are bassist Lee Pomeroy and drummer Lou Molino III. The tour marks the first time the three former Yes members have performed together ever since Yes' Union Tour of 1991–1992. The tour saw two songs dropped from the set after only one show: "Leaves of Green" and "Starship Trooper". Other songs have been steadily added to the set as Rabin's confidence in his voice improves; the song "Lift Me Up" was added for the second show on 7 October 2016 and a fan-favourite, "Changes" was added to the show on 22 October 2016.
