In 2026, Yes is gearing up for another journey across Europe, this time to perform their classic album "Fragile" in its entirety. Released in 1971, "Fragile" is the fourth studio album from the British progressive rock legends. It also marks the debut of artist and illustrator Roger Dean, who would go on to create the iconic cover art for many of the band's subsequent albums. With standouts like "Roundabout", "We Have Heaven", and "South Side of the Sky", "Fragile" achieved double platinum status in the United States, selling over two million copies.

Let's remember that Yes is celebrated for its expressive tracks, esoteric lyrics, elaborate album visuals, and scenic stage designs. Throughout their career, the band members have amassed over 20 albums, including classics like "Yes" (1969), "Close to the Edge" (1972), and "Heaven & Earth" (2014). To experience Yes live in Paris, head to the Olympia on May 7, 2026.
