Legendary singer-songwriter Jon Anderson named as a Prog God

Ahead of the tour with his former Yes bandmates, Rick Wakeman and Trevor Rabin, Jon Anderson last night was crowned Prog God at the 2016 Prog Awards

The trio appeared together at the awards ceremony, with his bandmates giving him the award – it was their first public appearance together since reforming in January.

With the promise of new music as well as the already announced ARW tour dates, Jon Anderson said, “For me the idea of progressive music is always there. It’s never stopped. It’s my life. After all these years, it’s just wonderful to be getting this very special award.

“Music has guided me along to this point in my life and I’m forever excited about the new and progressive musical adventures I am given by the gods of music. Making music is like breathing to me, and I am blessed to be able to create music every day.”

Tickets for Anderson, Rabin and Wakeman are available now and can be bought right here.
