Bio:
Billy Sherwood, Bassist, multi-instrumentalist, and composer. A highly respected as a Grammy nominated producer of iconic artists across countless genres.
Besides his solo albums, Sherwood has been integral to a host of Prog-fan faves; Lodgic, World Trade, Circa: (Alan White & Tony Kaye of YES), Conspiracy (Chris Squire & Alan White), Yoso, Citizen, Prog Collective, and John Wetton's Raised In Captivity.
Billy is widely known for his work with YES. Chris Squire, bassist & founding member of the progrock legends, reached out to Billy after hearing his World Trade demos. YES’ album Union (1991) featured Sherwood’s first co-write with Squire. Billy subsequently mixed, or produced, several YES albums, becoming a bandmember by mid-90s.
In 2015, an ailing Chris Squire asked Billy to take his place within YES as bass player. Squire’s trust in Sherwood to be keeper of the flame, was a testament to the friendship and respect Chris had for Billy.
2025 is the debut of Billy Sherwood & Friends, with YES drummer Jay Schellen, John Thomas on guitars & Scott Walton on keys. Jay’s inclusion continues a long musical history with Billy.
The setlist features solo material, tracks from his various bands, songwriting collaborations, and of course, YES material. As a special treat for the fans, they will perform excerpts from Chris Squire’s signature album Fish Out Of Water. This tour as a musical adventure that runs the length of Billy's wide and varied career.
