Neal posted this tonight on FB:

"Excited to be playing Scott Hamilton’s Benifit here in #nashvilletn with band mate Jonathan Cain and new Band Mate @jason_derlatka"


From what I can tell, Jason Derlatka is a vocalist, with a cover of "Send Her My Love" on YouTube.

Anybody know anything?

When asked, Neal himself has clarified:

"no Jason will be a Great audition to the band"


(Still seems a little suspect to me but we'll wait and see)

Wonder if he is the the new man behind the curtain?

Jason did Faithfully with Journey Through Time once or twice. Best that I can tell, Jon and Neal needed a singer for this Scott Hamilton Ice Skating Show and Arnel is not available. Calling him a new bandmate seems odd. Time will tell.

Maybe Travis isn't available or "out" so this guy is taking his place during the live shows?

Only footage of this I saw was on Twitter. Sounded good.

As per Andrew's twitter -

"A small change in the touring lineup of @JourneyOfficial - backing vocalist and keyboardist Travis Thibodaux departs, with Jason Delatka taking his place. @arnelpineda still going strong out front!"

Jason is a stronger vocalist. Travis was handpicked by Cain from Nashville and was also a good addition. I look forward to seeing what Jason adds to the band.
