The Story

California native Jeff Salado is an award-winning vocalist of incredible versatility, currently making a mark in the tribute genre, honoring the work of the San Francisco Bay Area classic melodic rock group Journey. With his unique tone and impressive range — from baritone to high tenor — Salado calls upon his gifted abilities with his band, FAITHFULLY LIVE, to tackle the vocals of one of the landmark voices in rock, Steve Perry, at his peak, night after night in a live setting. FAITHFULLY LIVE’s draw is a result of Salado’s commitment and fidelity to the musical performances that made Journey legendary outside of the studio; his arrangements immerse audiences in a Journey concert experience. For Salado, it’s essential as a tribute artist to go the extra mile not just for fans, but to honor the artist’s intent. “It’s just taking the time to get it right, I don’t like to settle on “that’s good enough.”

Salado’s vocal inspirations also include Sam Cooke, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, the Bee Gees, Geoff Tate of Queensrÿche, and the Beach Boys. Jeff has performed in various original and cover bands since 1986; founding the band Off-Kilter in 2005, changing later to “Arrival, a Tribute to Journey.” In 2010, the band became known as Journey Revisited, and Salado’s guiding vision garnered it successive Modesto Area Music Awards. Salado has also performed in concert with Foghat, Pat Travers, Frank Hannon of Tesla, and Firehouse.

Salado’s electrifying stage presence and ability to connect to fans and his drive to be the best has always guided him, drawing people of all walks of life, ages, and cultures together through music.
