Jon Anderson & Roine Stolt Team Up for The Invention Of Knowledge
.
Anderson/Stolt, the brand new duo of legendary Yes vocalist & singer/songwriter Jon Anderson and progressive rock veteran Roine Stolt (The Flower Kings, Transatlantic), have announced the release of their collaborative album The Invention Of Knowledge for Friday, July 8th, 2016 via InsideOut Music.
 .
Jon Anderson had this to say: “Music is always the driving force in my life…working with such a wonderful musician as Roine Stolt made the creation of this album very unique, we are very excited with the release of Invention of Knowledge.
.
Roine Stolt adds: “It is not aiming at being new Yes music; just new music, modern and classical, rock and ethno, tribal and orchestrated, grooving and floating. Hopefully in the true spirit of “progressive” – leaning forward, surprising and also comforting with familiar run-arounds. We’ve been “inventing” as we go along – Jon is an endless source of new ideas. We’ve been bouncing ideas back and forth for months and as a result, there are probably dozens of versions of these songs.  It’s been a very interesting and rewarding time and the result is just insanely detailed.
.
anderson/stoltThe idea came to life swiftly off the back of a performance from Roine’s band Transatlantic, and Jon Anderson on the Progressive Nation At Sea Cruise in 2014, and was initially instigated by InsideOut Music label boss Thomas Waber.  The duo set about crafting new music in the spirit of early epic works such as Tales From Topographic Oceans, Awaken & Olias Of Sunhillow, but giving it a modern twist.  Written & recorded over the course of 1 and a half years, the tracks have been in a state of constant change as Roine and Anderson swapped & refined ideas by sending tracks to each other via the internet. In March 2015, an ensemble was put together by Roine to realise the music live in the studio. Joining him there was Tom Brislin (who played on the Yes Symphonic tour) &  Lalle Larsson on keys, Jonas Reingold & Michael Stolt on bass and Felix Lehrmann on drums.
