Billy Sherwood

I have always enjoyed different kinds of music.

It's an album that is a little bit different and probably isn't easy to get out. It's not likely that a major label would have picked it up and said that they had a smash hit record.

So I was always around music and my dad was in his own way a progressive jazzer, a big band jazzer guy.

You know, I am just a musician and I have no idea these days what good and bad is in terms of labels.

I don't have any assistants, I do it all myself, I don't have any secretaries.

Everyone is really getting along with each other and we enjoy each others company and love playing live.

I love all Yes music and love to play it live, but I'm most interested in making new music with Yes.

I love the feeling of creating pictures in someone's mind just by spelling out the right lyrical combination.

So that studio served its purpose, and still is working very well for other people right now.

So for my studio purposes, I know that I'm in my studio with technicians who've done amazing things to my board and to my power amps and I know what I can deliver out of my studio.

I know that if I went to other studios, like in Vancouver, that those are set up to be as professional and as true, so it's just a different flavour, it's a different sound, but I think both have their place.

I grew up in a very musical family, my father was a musician and a big band leader and made records.
