FAITHFULLY
Released May 14, 2025
Steve Perry, the former lead singer of the 1970-80s band Journey, teamed up with Willie Nelson to remake the 1983 classic hit “Faithfully.” Perry, who usually steers away from the band’s hits from their heyday as a solo artist, recreated the song with Nelson, with proceeds to help and support Farm Aid.
When discussing what it was like to get into the studio with the country icon, Perry told American Songwriter, “No one has a voice or vocal phrasing anything like Willie Nelson. Singing this duet with Willie has been something I’ve always wanted to do. After recording ‘Faithfully’ with Journey, I always felt it would be a great song for Willie, too.”
“What a wonderful experience it was to finally sing with Willie, Perry added.” I’m so proud of what we have accomplished together.”
Farm Aid started in 1985 and continues today with the original co-founders, Willie Nelson, Neil Young, and John Mellencamp. They continue to fight against big corporation greed and have grown and helped family farmers for 40 years.
