Steve Howe to Release Album With Deceased Son Virgil as Scheduled

Legendary Yes guitarist Steve Howe has announced he will go ahead with the scheduled November 17 released of the album he and his recently deceased son Virgil Howe wrote together. 

The father and son began working on Nexus in 2016. The record label, InsideOutMusic, says Virgil's death came just hours after he approved the first press release for the album.

The label said it left the decision to continue with the released up to Steve. 

Nexus explores a completely different side of Virgil’s ability, as a writer and keyboard player – ‘in his own right,’" Howe wrote in a release. "His talents were multi-diverse, so sitting at a keyboard and computer or in the middle of his drum kit, at all his regular DJ-ing gigs or on the radio, he always gave his best. 

"We hope that the music just completed will stand as a fitting tribute to his life and legacy.” 

Virgil Howe was well-known as the drummer of the U.K.-based band Little Barrie

The artwork for Nexus was created by Virgil's 5-year-old daughter Zuni.
