Steve Perry confirms that he’s signed with a new label and he’s now hinting at a return to concert stages. He hasn’t mounted a solo tour in 30 years – and last performed a full-length concert with Journey in 1987. “It’s something that I’m absolutely missing terribly,” Perry tells Rolling Stone. “I can’t even tell you how much, but there’s been a big soulful reclaiming of this original feeling that I had about singing that I needed to get back to. I didn’t want to go out and just turn the wheel or turn the crank.” Perry returned to solo work after a couple of decades away with 2018’s Traces, bu...

Steve Perry has enjoyed revisiting songs from his time with Journey in recent years, updating “Only the Young” and “Separate Ways” in an innovative fashion. Sometimes, the opportunities present themselves in unusual ways. That was the case when he found out that his longtime friend Trev Lukather had plans to record an updated version of “It Could Have Been You” — originally a deep track from 1986’s Raised on Radio — with his band, The Effect. The California band has a finished album in the can and they’ve already released several singles, including “Toxic Envy” earlier this year. Still, Lukath...

Steve Perry songwriting collaborator Randy Goodrum describes “Oh Sherrie” in the 2024 band biography Journey: Worlds Apart as “a perfect combination of all the moving parts working as they should – band, singer, production, melody and lyrics. It’s a perfect record, in my opinion.” The song’s beginnings, however, were anything but perfect. “Oh Sherrie” started as a demo with studio aces Craig Krampf on a drum pad and Bill Cuomo on keyboards. Perry was in the midst of a rough patch with then-girlfriend Sherrie Swafford, and was struggling to convey his turbulent feelings. READ MORE: Photos From ...

Journey had never gotten higher than No. 85 on the Billboard album chart when new frontman Steve Perry walked in the door in 1977. They went on to sell an astonishing nine million albums in the U.S. alone before Jonathan Cain joined in 1980, and Journey somehow got even bigger. Their next four albums were all Top 5 smashes, and they were all platinum or multi-platinum. Perry’s first record with Cain sold more than 10 million copies. Journey had also never had a charting single before Perry arrived. By the time he split with the group in the late ’90s, they’d racked up 16 Top 25 singles – inclu...
