Steve Perry has had a profound impact on music throughout his career, and has now turned to his solo work to have an influence. His album Traces was released in October of this year, marking one of his only major releases of the 21st century. The passion of the album can be easily seen through songs such as “No More Cryin’” and “You Belong To Me.” Both of these tracks drawn upon the life experience Perry has had, bringing more substance to his lyrics than many other performers can. Perry’s rendition of the timeless “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” shows the unique musical style of the artist. The singer’s new version of the song is slightly under 2 minutes and shows many of the same artistic qualities that made Perry’s newest album one of a kind.
