Frontiers Music Srl has announced the signing of Stephen Pearcy for the release of his fourth original solo album, Smash. Pearcy, best known as the original vocalist and founding member of the platinum rock band Ratt, has been working hard to complete his new album, while at the same time keeping busy performing shows across the US.

“I am very happy with the new music and the diversity of the songs. It's taken some time. I'm sure all the fans will be excited too. Also, to be involved with the Frontiers Music Srl family is way cool,” says Stephen about the new songs which are coming to life now.

The good news is that the first taste of new music has been already made available. Check out “I Can’t Take It” now below:

Smash will be mixed and mastered by none other than the legendary Beau Hill, the producer of Ratt's first four albums, among many other hit records. Stephen will be supporting Smash with live dates in the US and internationally.

With over 15 million records and gold and platinum long form videos sold in the US alone with Ratt, touring the world with over 20 albums to his credit with other ventures, solo projects, compilations, best of records, and other bands he created, there is no slowing Pearcy down.

Pearcy is an accomplished songwriter with credits on all of Ratt's records through the years (including Out Of The Cellar, Invasion Of Your Privacy, Dancing Undercover and more). More recently, Ratt's last studio album, Infestation, was released to a few years ago to rave reviews around the world.

Stephen is also a producer, composer, television program creator, art director, marketing director, and owner/product creator of "Mic Knuckle" (hands free mic holder) and has also been involved in music for ESPN2 NHRA Drag Racing. Additionally, he has been involved in sponsoring several top fuel dragsters and funny cars since the mid 80's-90's thru the 00's.

Smash is planned for release in early 2017.
