Rick Wakeman - Return of the Caped Crusader

Performing Classic Yes + Journey To The Centre Of The Earth

This event has passed

A person playing keyboards on stage.

Join Rick Wakeman for an evening of classic prog rock as he takes his band on the road for an extensive 2024 tour.

This 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, while the English Rock Ensemble line-up will be the same as the Palladium shows: 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, or as a band member of YES, 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!
