After revisiting his multi-platinum back catalogue of both his solo career and with his former band YES earlier this year, Rick Wakeman is now taking his show on the road, with The Return Of The Caped Crusader… Tour of the UK in 2024.
The two-part show will consist of Rick’s new arrangements of classic YES material for band and vocalists, followed after the interval by his much-loved epic Journey to the Centre of the Earth.
Rick will of course be playing the leading role on keyboards with the English Rock Ensemble, featuring Dave Colquhoun (guitars and backing vocals), Adam Falkner (drums), Lee Pomeroy (bass and backing vocals), Hayley Sanderson (vocals) and Adam Wakeman (keyboard, guitars and backing vocals).
Whether as a solo artist, with his own groundbreaking albums The Six Wives of Henry VIII, Journey to the Centre of the Earth and The Myths and Legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, or as a band member of YES, helping to create the trailblazing records like ‘Fragile’, ‘Close To The Edge’ and ‘Tales From Topographic Oceans’, Rick Wakeman holds legendary status in the history of progressive rock. Expect to hear classic rock brought bang up to date by Rick and the English Rock Ensemble, playing at the top of their game in a not-to-be-missed tour!
