Steve Porcaro - The Very Day

 

Steve Porcaro — The Very Day

Steve Porcaro, legendary songwriter, musician, and founding member of Toto, returns with The Very Day — his first solo project in years. Known for his iconic sound, Steve delivers a masterclass in songwriting and production, with signature tracks that blend heart, soul, iconic melody lines and sophistication. Featuring guest artists Michael McDonald, Jason Scheff, Jude Cole, and more, this is a must-hear album from a true music pioneer.

The legendary synth trailblazer and songwriter also known for works in films and television and for penning Michael Jackson‘s classic hit "Human Nature," the influential behind-the-scenes work of Porcaro was recently highlighted in the HBO documentary Yacht Rock — but he found the time to step into the limelight on his own.

For this album, Porcaro shared the studio with some of his musical colleagues including McDonald, Jude Cole, Gardner Cole, and Scheff- though Porcaro does sing vocals on several tracks, including "Miss Jane Sinclair" above.

"I've always had a soft spot for a great hook, but I also grew up loving music that pushed the envelope — Steely Dan, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, and Yes," he says. "Now I get to follow that instinct and be true to myself. These songs come from that place."
