This most recent solo record, Ponder the Mystery, which includes\u00a0guest  artists from the prog and fusion genres such as Rick Wakeman, Al  DiMeola, Steve Vai, Robbie Krieger, Vince Gill, Edgar Winter, George  Duke, Zoot Horn Rollo and Dave Koz to name a few), expands Shatner\u2019s  musical horizons due to the fact that all of the songs are original,  written by Shatner and his musical partner in the project Billy  Sherwood. The album will be released on both CD and vinyl on October 8,  2013.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_7_2_1_1378788162273_1978\">This  partnership of Shatner and Sherwood has created a vast and expansive  artistic landscape for Shatner\u2019s amazing gift of poetry while Sherwood  composed the musical backdrop. The record is conceptual in nature:  following a man in despair through the setting sun, twilight and finally  darkness, and in the process, regains his joy of life.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Both Bills had a  vision of taking the record to the stage and performing it live. When it  came time to form the band for this event, Circa: was the obvious  choice, Sherwood and Kaye have had a long running musical relationship  playing on stage together with YES and forming Circa: in 2006. Circa:  recently released a new album Live From Here There and Everywhere.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Performance dates and locations:<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_7_2_1_1378788162273_1980\">Wednesday, October 23, 2013: Saint Rocke, 142 E.
