Jeff Scott Soto (born November 4, 1965, in Brooklyn, New York) is an American rock singer best known for being vocalist on Yngwie Malmsteen's first two albums. His style is typical of heavy metal vocalists of the 1980s, but he is also influenced by classic soul music singers such as Sam Cooke as well as Steve Perry of Journey and Freddie Mercury from Queen.

The bands Soto has been involved in included Axel Rudi Pell, Eyes, Talisman, Takara, Humanimal, Human Clay, Kryst The Conqueror, Redlist, The Boogie Knights and Soul Sirkus.

Jeff has sung background vocals on several albums by artists such as Lita Ford, Steelheart, Fergie Frederiksen, Glass Tiger, House Of Lords, Stryper, Saigon Kick, and many others.

He has released several solo albums as well. Jeff also sang for the fictional band Steel Dragon, which featured Zakk Wylde, for the soundtrack of the movie Rock Star along with Michael Matijevic of the band Steelheart, whose second album featured Jeff on background vocals.

He has also sung lead vocals on an album inspired by the TV series Biker Mice From Mars.

In 2006, Soto replaced Steve Augeri in Journey due to an acute throat infection that caused Augeri to leave the tour. On December 19, Soto was confirmed as the official lead singer for Journey and a press release was posted on the band's official site.

Did you put that up there? I've noticed he needs his IMDB profile filled out too. I keep meaning to do that.

No! I didn't know who had done the job?

I remember reading about him on that site when I was doing my research on him after I first saw him perform.

Which Steelheart album did JSS do the backing vocals on? Was it Wait or Tangled in Reins?

Yes Lea it was Tangled in Reins

It was 1 of the 6 albums that Tom Werman produced on the 80's and He called J to do background.

I remember that there is a J interview where he talked about that.

I used to have it on my spanish website, give me a chance and I will post here or on a new section of this forum called FAQ that I gonna build with Nath and all you.

If you have any question about records you can ask me directly. I have too much info about the records that J has involved.

Cheers
