WITH YES, STEVE HOWE’S LEGACY IS FIRMLY CEMENTED AS THE SIX-STRING force behind some of prog rock’s most indelible songs, from “Roundabout” and “Close to the Edge” to “Starship Trooper” and his classic acoustic instrumental, “Clap.”
Howe still tours and records with Yes — in fact, he’s the sole remaining member from the classic early Seventies Fragileera lineup — but he has also kept up an active schedule over the years with other acts (among them Asia and Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe) as well as working as a guest musician and, of course, as a rather prolific solo artist. His latest solo effort is Love Is, and it presents 10 new Howe compositions, half of which are instrumental and half featuring his own vocals. Howe plays electric, acoustic and steel guitars on the album, as well as keyboards, percussion and bass, with help from current Yes singer Jon Davison on background vocals and bass and Howe’s son, Dylan, on drums.
And while the songs range from trademark bright-toned, nimble-fingered instrumentals like “Fulcrum” and “Sound Picture” to the textured ballad “Love Is a River,” the slide-guitar-focused “The Headlands” and the distorted riff-rocker “On the Balcony,” the sound and guitar style is 100 percent classic Steve Howe.

Kittie - Guitarists Morgan Lander and Tara Mcleod discuss the canadian metal powerhouse's unexpected rebirth â by fire!
Guitarists Morgan Lander and Tara McLeod explain that making new music was ânot on their bingo cardâ when the band regrouped in 2022 for a few festival appearances, preferring to think of the sets as more of a âfinal lapâ than a new beginning. But drilling into old favorites â whether the nu-flavored teenage slams of 1999âs Spit or the more venomously groove-thrashed tunes of their late-â00s period â revealed that despite not having raged together in years, there was something undeniably special about Kittieâs musical connection. âPlaying with these girls is like putting on an old pair of pants,â Lander says. âItâs very comfortable â and it looks good too.â
McKinley James - Why all you really need is a guitar, a drummer and some serious low-end six-string skills
Nashville-based blues rocker McKinley James came flying out of the gate in 2022 with his Dan Auerbachproduced EP, Still Standing By. His momentum screeched to a halt, however, when his keyboardist split, leaving only him and his drummer, Jason Smay (who also happens to be his father). âFor a moment, I was like, âWhat are we going to do?â James says. âBut then I thought, âWell, other bands have succeeded as a duo. Maybe we can, too.â
