Soto Says New Band Follows In Tradition Of Van Halen, Dio


. (Classic Rock) Members of Jeff Scott Soto's group reckon he's created a real band atmosphere in the camp. The former Journey frontman releases his album Inside The Vertigo on January 29 via earMusic, and while the group carries his name, it doesn't feel like a solo record to the musicians who helped him record it.

Drummer Edu Cominato says: "To me it was a natural transition because we never felt like hired musicians. We've been touring with Jeff since 2009 and we always had this connection between us, we always had this unity. We are just confirming this with Soto."

Soto adds: "Inside The Vertigo was supposed to be my next solo album and I decided it sounded too much like a band, more so than a solo effort. So we simplified it by taking my last name as has been done through history with Van Halen, with Daughtry, with Dio, Dokken, Winger - so many other bands that used one person's name."
