In a new interview with Rolling Stone, former JOURNEY singer Steve Perry discussed some of his upcoming projects. He said: “I just signed with a new label. I’m very excited about it, and I’ll have an opportunity very soon to work with these very, very musically creative people. I’ll probably announce who I signed with very soon. That’s about as much as I can say, but I’m excited about that, and I am working on stuff.”
Asked why he didn’t tour in support of his last album, 2018’s “Traces”, Steve said: “Well, it’s a long story. Uncle Steve is up in age, and everybody at this age has some aches and pains and things like that. But it’s a really good question that I’ve been asking myself too.
Perry went on to say that he is about to get into the studio and recorded the follow-up to “Traces”.
“These new label people are so supportive,” Steve said. “They said, ‘We don’t care what you do, we just want to do it with you.'”
Earlier this month, Perry released a new version of the JOURNEY song “It Could Have Been You” with THE EFFECT, the group featuring Trevor “Trev” Lukather (son of TOTO’s Steve Lukather) on guitars, Nic Collins (son of Phil Collins) on drums and Steve Maggiora (TOTO) on keyboards.
