It's always nice when one of the greatest singers alive shows up to the studio when you're finishing up your new record. It's especially cool when he turns out to also be a totally down-to-earth, humble human being. However, it's insanely surreal when Steve Perry decides to lay down the perfect harmonies on your new record. Thank you, Steve!
Perry's good natured bonhomie & the world’s most charmin smile,knocked fans off their feet. Sportin a black tux,gigs came alive as he swished around the stage thrillin audiences w/ charisma that instantly burnt the oxygen right out of the venue.TR.com

PREMIERE: Hear LA rockers State To State’s Steve Perry-approved ‘Motives’ EP

http://substreammagazine.com/2016/02/pr ... otives-ep/

by Scott Heisel - Feb 4, 2016

The beauty of making music in Los Angeles is that musicians seem to be way less concerned about being “cool” (like so much of what comes out of New York City these days) and far more focused on creating real, honest songs that aren’t shy about their influences or passion. Take Motives, the new release from LA rockers State To State: The five-track EP draws from Radiohead (ca. The Bends) and Jeff Buckley as well as more modern-sounding outfits like Queens Of The Stone Age and Muse. The band is never trying to outsmart the listener, instead just enjoying the sounds they’re creating—so much so that when the opportunity to have Steve Perry—yes, that Steve Perry, of Journey fame—contribute to a few tracks, they absolutely jumped at the chance. Bassist Patrick Morgan explains:

“Steve Perry happened to stop by the studio when we were recording and ended up singing background vocals on the chorus of both ‘Arms’ and ‘Let Go’ on the new EP. Although he’s not credited, it was quite a life changing moment for both Shea and I to have sang harmonies alongside one of the greatest voices in rock history. I still can’t believe that happened!”

He seems to like hanging out at recording studios! How awesome for them!! Hope he is almost finished his own album.
Couldn't pick his voice out on the 2 songs, but I liked the songs!
The injury that we do to a man must be such that we need not fear his vengeance. Steve Perry
