Biography

Stephen Ray Perry (born January 22, 1949) is an American singer and songwriter. He was the lead singer and frontman of the rock band Journey during their most successful years from 1977 to 1987, and again from 1995 to 1998. He wrote/co-wrote several Journey hit songs, including "Any Way You Want It", "Don't Stop Believin'", "Open Arms", "Who's Crying Now", "Faithfully" and "Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)". Perry had a solo career from the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s, made sporadic appearances in the 2000s, and returned to music full-time in 2018. Perry's singing voice has garnered acclaim from prominent musical peers and publications; he has been dubbed "The Voice", a moniker originally coined by Jon Bon Jovi. Ranked No. 76 on Rolling Stone's "100 Greatest Singers of All Time", Perry was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Journey in 2017. In August 2023, Perry made the Billboard list of the 50 greatest rock lead singers of all time, at number 30. At the same time, Billboard readers chose Perry as their favorite rock singer of all time, with 67 percent of the overall votes.
