Founded in 1973 in San Francisco, the legacy of Journey has spanned nearly 30 years with 18 U.S. releases and 50,000,000 in album sales. Their music is artful, intense, melodic rock played with passion and superb musicianship.
Journey's initial style was progressive jazz-rock, a style much in evidence on their first three albums. The switch to their signature highly sophisticated rock occurred with the recording of their hugely successful album, "Infinity." The band's next release, "Evolution," followed and brought the band their first US Top 20 hit, "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'."
"Captured" was a live double album that surprised many critics. The album featured cranked-up guitars and raucous hard rock, eventually peaking at #9 on the US album chart. Founding member Rolie departed after its release, to be replaced by Jonathan Cain, who had previously played with the Babys. Cain's arrival was an important landmark in Journey's career, as his songwriting input added a new dimension to the band's sound. The band's next release, "Escape," reached #1 and stayed in the charts for more than a year. It also spawned three US Top 10 hit singles, "Who's Crying Now," "Don't Stop Believin'" and "Open Arms." The follow-up, "Frontiers," was also massively successful, staying at #2 on the Billboard album chart for nine weeks.
Valory and Smith departed the group prior to the release of 1986's "Raised On Radio," which generated another US hit single, "Be Good To Yourself." The band was joined in the studio and subsequent live dates by bass players Randy Jackson and Bob Glaub, drummers, Mike Baird and Nashville veteran Larrie Londin.
In 1996 Perry, Schon, Smith, Cain and Valory reunited to release "Trial By Fire," which entered the US chart at number 3. The following year Deen Castronovo (ex-Bad English) replaced Smith and vocalist Steve Augeri (Tall Stories) replaced Perry after health problems sidelined the singer. Vocalist, Steve Augeri first recorded with Journey for the band's 1998 contribution to the "Armageddon" soundtrack – "Remember Me." The soundtrack, which hit #1 on the Billboard charts, was certified triple platinum. The band's 18th release, "Arrival," debuted in the spring of 2001 and the group launched their incredibly successful 56-city Arrival 2001 World Tour.
Throughout the summer of 2002, Journey again brought its live show around the country during their Under The Radar Tour. It also gave the band an opportunity to showcase music from their new EP, "Red13," to their die-hard fans.
January 21, 2005 will forever be known as “Journey Day,” as declared by Hollywood’s Mayor Johnny Grant. That’s the date Journey - who has sold over 75 million albums worldwide making them the 29th best-selling music group of all time-were honored with a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Not only was the entire current line-up in attendance, but several band members from the past as well: drummers Steve Smith and Aynsley Dunbar, guitarist George Tickner and singer Robert Fleischman. Perhaps the greatest surprise of all—not only to the fans in attendance, but to the band most of all—was the unexpected appearance of the group’s legendary former frontman Steve Perry, who had not been seen anywhere with the band since his departure in 1996 after Trial by Fire was released and earned the band’s first Grammy® Award nomination for “When You Love A Woman.”
For Journey, transformation and renewal are an integral part of the creative force that has led the band on their remarkable "journey." Journey's touring and performing continues to delight audiences across the country and around the globe.
