Yes cancel February tour dates

The band cite unspecified medical reasons

Yes have announced that they are cancelling their North American tour dates until February 24.

In a statement posted yesterday (February 12) on the band's website, they wrote: "Due to unforeseen medical reasons, the 'In The Present Tour', featuring Yes' Steve Howe, Chris Squire and Alan White is cancelling shows through February 24 (San Diego)."

Last year, the veteran prog rockers put their first tour in 15 years on hold because frontman Jon Anderson suffered a severe asthma attack and was diagnosed with respiratory failure.
