Oliver Wakeman (born 26 February 1972) is an English musician, rock keyboardist and composer, best known as a former member of Yes,
having filled the role of keyboards previously held by his father, Rick Wakeman.
Stephen James Howe (born 8 April 1947) is an English musician, songwriter and producer, best known as the guitarist in the rock band Yes
across three stints since 1970. Born in Holloway, North London, Howe developed an interest in the guitar and began to learn the instrument
himself at age 12. He embarked on a music career in 1964, first playing in several London-based blues, covers, and psychedelic rock bands
for six years, including the Syndicats, Tomorrow, and Bodast.
Upon joining Yes in 1970, Howe helped to establish the band's change in sound, a change that led to their commercial and critical success.
Many of their best-known songs were co-written by Howe, who remained with the band until they briefly disbanded in 1981. Howe returned to
the group in 1990 for two years. He returned again in 1995, and has remained a full-time member since.
In addition to Yes, Howe achieved further success in the 1980s and beyond as a member of the rock bands Asia, GTR, and Anderson Bruford
Wakeman Howe. He also has a prolific solo career, releasing 20 solo albums that reached varied levels of success and collaborated with artists
such as Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Martin Taylor, and Queen. He continues to perform with Yes, as a member of his jazz group, the Steve
Howe Trio, and as a solo act. In April 2017, Howe was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Yes.
