He's the guy that has been singing off and on for them for years now. He basically dedicated his like to singing like Steve Perry.

From what I understand, Steve Augeri lost his voice or something like that and is no longer the lead singer of Journey.

I think this guy is the new lead singer.

I'm going to try to see them in concert this summer. Sounds pretty good.


From Wikipedia:

Augeri suffered ongoing voice problems during Journey's 2006 tour. It was announced after a show on July 4th [1] that he was to be replaced on tour by Jeff Scott Soto, vocalist with Neal Schon's side project Soul Sirkus. Augeri was diagnosed as suffering from a throat infection and was advised to rest his vocal cords while recovering.

On December 19, 2006 a statement was released on the band's official website [2] announcing that Jeff Scott Soto was the new lead singer of Journey, filling in for Steve Augeri. On June 12, 2007, the band's website announced that Soto was no longer the lead singer for Journey. Soto's last performance with the band was May 12th, 2007 in Leesburg, VA. Augeri is now said to be working on a solo album, due for release later in 2007, and is also planning a Tall Stories album featuring previously unreleased material.

Steve Perry WAS Journey. Without him they are not the same. Sure they can get a guy to sing with his sound. But he was a major cog in that "wheel in the sky"


Just as Stevie Nicks WAS Fleetwood Mac. Most of their best hits were with her leading the way with her voice.

Jeez. This guy sounds amazing. He also can sound like a bunch of other singers as well if you look around for 'The Zoo' stuff.
