Say Yes to Fragile




Fragile, featuring singer songwriter Claire Hamill on lead vocals, play an evening of classic Yes and more at Arlington Arts this Saturday.
FRAGILE were founded as a tribute project to the music of classic 70s symphonic rock band Yes in 1998. The band are now well known to the super-group's fans all over Europe, having appeared on the UK's prime-time Richard & Judy TV show with Rick Wakeman and visionary album cover artist Roger Dean and performed throughout the UK, Finland, Belgium, Holland & Switzerland, including tours with Yes/Asia guitar legend Steve Howe in 2005/6 and 7.
The band has also performed to an audience of over 35,000 with Yes and former John Lennon drummer Alan White and have performed at many exclusive Roger Dean art exhibition events over the past few years.
2013 saw anew collaboration Claire Hamill joining the project. Claire has had a distinguished musical career and offers a genuine link to Yes. With help from Alan White, in 1971 she was signed and launched on Island Records as one of Britain's first female singer-songwriters and compared by several commentators of the time to Joni Mitchell. She has worked with Alan White, Steve Howe, Jon & Vangelis and Wishbone Ash and performed internationally as support on tours with many well known artists including Jon Anderson, John Martyn, Procul Harem, Jethro Tull, The Kinks and Jackson Browne.
Claire sang lead vocals on the 1980 Steve Howe track 'Look Over Your Shoulder' and her 1974 song 'You Take My Breath Away' was recorded by Eva Cassidy and used on a movie soundtrack gaining huge international popularity.
The show starts at 8pm, for more details, visit www.arlingtonarts.co.uk
