Born on March 4, 1948, in London, Squire was a driving force behind the band’s success, helping to shape the distinct sound of Yes for over four decades. His powerful, melodic bass lines redefined the role of the bass guitar in rock music, making it an instrument that could lead and dominate rather than just support. Squire’s extraordinary technique, distinctive Rickenbacker tone, and inventive use of harmonics elevated him to iconic status among bassists and music lovers worldwide.
