Back from hiatus with breaking news:

Benoit David

 Out with the old (sort of) and in with the new.  YES has recruited yet another lead singer due to front-man, Benoit David, contracting a respiratory ailment.  The band has gotten Jon Davison, from the Tennessee based progressive group Glass Hammer.  YES will be touring with him in April as they go to Australia, New Zealand and Japan.
Their current lineup is now Chris Squire (Bass), Steve Howe (Guitar), Alan White (Drums), Geoff Downes (keyboards) and Jon Davison (Vocals).  Oddly enough, original singer, Jon Anderson, had to leave the group due to Acute Respiratory Failure in 2008.

Jon Davison

Glass Hammer has been around since '93 but just recently signed Davison in '09.  He has appeared on their last 2 albums.  Vocally, he appears to be a good fit.
