Vocalist JEFF SCOTT SOTO (ex-TALISMAN, JOURNEY, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN) will be releasing his new solo album, Beautiful Mess, via Sewtoe Music/iTunes on September 16th.

His website has been updated with the following:

"Jeff's promotions guy, Richard Mace has created another stunning and imaginative cover for Jeff Scott Soto's new solo album. Incorporating the theme of global destruction and the decay of humanity, this cover exemplifies the paradox of the beautiful mess, that is Jeff's own career. As enjoyable as it has been, he has indeed had his share of highs and lows and continues to pursue, with determination and relish, his own personal dream and ambition."

Beautiful Mess tracklisting: '21st Century', 'Cry Me A River', 'Gin And Tonic Sky', 'Hey', 'Broken Man', 'Mountain', 'Our Song', 'Eye', 'Bring It Home', 'Testify', 'Wherever U Wanna Go', 'Kick It'.
