Neal Schon Streaming New Album 'Vortex' Online Ahead Of Release

06/16/2015
. (hennemusic) Journey guitarist Neal Schon is streaming his forthcoming instrumental solo album, "Vortex", in advance of its release on June 23. The 2CD project sees Schon regroup with keyboardists Jan Hammer and Igor Len and former Journey drummer Steve Smith to mix elements of rock, jazz, classical and world music over an 18-song package.

"This is an evolutionary album for me," explains Schon. "I've always aspired to be a better player and push musical boundaries. And sure, I've sold 80-million records with Journey, and I'm proud of that, but this album is really me - all based on my guitar, which is my 'voice.' It's bold. There's love, and there's definitely fire and an element of danger. And the energy level is off the hook."

Schon and Journey recently wrapped up their first Las Vegas residency, a run that saw the band perform 9 shows at The Joint inside Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. Stream Schon's new album here.
