STEVE PERRY's first album in nearly a quarter century has landed on the charts with the highest debut ranking in his solo career. "TRACES" is the former JOURNEY frontman's first Top 10 solo debut, making its bow on BILLBOARD's Top 200 Albums chart at number 6, on the Digital Album Chart at number 4, and on the Current Rock Album Chart at number 2. The album was released on FANTASY RECORDS; His previous solo studio albums were "FOR THE LOVE OF STRANGE MEDICINE" (number 15 in 1994) and "STREET TALK" (number 12 in 1984).
PERRY is also making chart noise with his best solo album ranking in the UK, GERMANY, CANADA (number 7 on the Current Albums chart), and JAPAN (topping the International Chart).
PERRY said, “All I was hoping for was someone to listen to the emotional expression of these new songs after my years of absence.... This has been beyond my wildest dreams, and I thank everyone so very much.
