STAFF REPORT

Peter Frampton and YES announced a 25-city national summer tour that will visit the Red, White & Blue Ash Festival on July 4.

The tour will kick off in early June in Connecticut and run through mid-July.

Frampton and YES did a stadium tour together in 1976.

Frampton, who lives in Indian Hill, recently won a Grammy for his instrumental album “Fingerprints” and will perform material from his upcoming "Thank You Mr Churchill," due April 27.

YES, a progressive rock band, will feature guitarist Steve Howe, bassist Chris Squire and drummer Alan White, as well as Oliver Wakeman (whose father, Rick, is a former member) on keyboards and lead singer Benoit David.

This year's Red, White & Blue Ash festival will be held at Lake Forest West Drive and Glendale Milford Road, on the Duke Realty property near Blue Ash Airport.
