1000 Hands: Chapter One is the upcoming fifteenth studio album by English singer-songwriter and musician Jon Anderson, set for release on 31 March 2019.

Background

The album was recorded at Solar Studios in Orlando, Florida over a span of 30 years. He enlisted the help of several musicians including Billy Cobham, Rick Derringer, and his former bandmates Steve Howe and Chris Squire. Anderson was very satisfied with the final product, calling the record "timeless".

“I’ve spent long periods of time making some records, but I’ve never taken a journey quite like this one. To say that 1,000 Hands has been a long time in coming would be quite an understatement, but I’m thrilled that it’s finally a reality and that my fans will now be able to hear it. And I think they’ll be delighted to hear music that’s timeless. It’s one of the best things I’ve ever done.”[1]

Release

In October 2018, a dedicated album website launched containing the artwork and audio samples.[2] The album will be available from 31 March 2019 as a digital download, CD, and limited edition vinyl.

Promotion

Anderson will promote the album with a US tour from March to August 2019.[1][3]
