Partnering with Alessandro Del Vecchio, he delivers high-quality AOR/hard rock that strongly evokes the 80s. Jeff Scott Soto, who was selected as the vocalist for Yngwie Malmsteen's band at the tender age of 19, made a huge impact on the scene with his vocal talent. Since then, he has participated in countless bands, projects, and sessions, including Axel Rudy Pell, Talisman, and Sons of Apollo, and it is said that he has sung on well over 60 albums. And now, his solo album, "Wide Awake (In My Dreamland)," is being released. Jeff has sung a variety of musical styles, from heavy metal to hard rock, progressive rock, and even funk. This album, his seventh under his own name, has a strong AOR and hard rock influence. Alessandro Del Vecchio, a renowned melodic rock writer, handled everything from songwriting and recording to bass and keyboards. From powerful hard rock to beautiful ballads, the album fully showcases Jeff's vocals. "Wide Awake (In My Dreamland)" is a fantastic work that evokes a strong sense of 80s nostalgia and encapsulates Jeff Scott Note's career to date.
