Rick Wakeman will perform at York Barbican Centre on 11 March 2027. He is an English keyboard player, renowned as the keyboardist for the progressive rock group Yes and a pioneer in the use of electronic keyboards.
Richard Christopher Wakeman (born 18 May 1949 in Perivale, London) is an English keyboard player best known as the keyboardist for progressive rock group Yes. Originally a classically trained pianist, he was a pioneer in the use of electronic keyboards and in the use of a rock band in combination with orchestra and choir. He purchased his first electronic keyboard, a Minimoog, from the actor Jack Wild. Wakeman was able to buy it for half the regular selling price because Wild thought it did not work as it only played one note at a time.
