Additionally, it’s been revealed that Asia will be with them on the road, with original guitarist Steve Howe joining the band for a portion of their set. Asia will also introduce their new line-up which features guitarist and vocalist Ron ‘Bumblefoot’ Thal and Yes bassist Billy Sherwood, with the band paying tribute to late founding member John Wetton.

Yes drummer Alan White will also pay tribute to John Lennon on the tour. White was the drummer on Lennon’s solo material including the recording of Imagine. Tickets for the Royal Affair tour are set to go on sale this Friday, 5 April, and more information can be found at the band’s official website.

Steve Howe said: “Yes is delighted to headline this celebration of British music which has been so warmly received in America over the past five decades.”

Alan White added: “I’m looking forward to joining a number of classic British talents that have delighted so many fans over the past half century.”

Keyboardist Geoff Downes says the Royal Affair tour will be “a unique celebration of the British contribution to classic rock over many decades” and adds: “It will be inspirational to be a part of. And I know it is what John Wetton would have wanted.”
