Young recently posted a clip of his new project Jeff Young & Sherri - featuring vocalist Sherri Klein - performing Tom Waits' "Temptation" live in Las Vegas:
Back In October 2013, Young and Klein announced details of two new studio tracks. An update reads: "We're treating our first release like the old 45 RPM singles with a Side A & B. Side A: Our first original is called, 'Come Closer' and features an amazing bass performance by James Lomenzo (Megadeth, Black Label Society) and Jeff Bowders (Paul Gilbert, Puddle Of Mudd) on drums. Band tracks were recorded in Los Angeles, live (like how bands used to record) to 2" analog tape. Lead vocals, guitar solos and mixing was completed with Bobby Ferarri at Vegas View Recording. Side B: 'Wild Horses' is our re-imagining of The Rolling Stones classic. This side features fretless bass by Ric Fierabracci (Stevie Wonder, Shakira) and Brian Tichy (Whitesnake, S.U.N.) on drums.
The tracks are recorded, mixed and ready for release. We're currently talking with some folks regarding the most appropriate release avenues. In the meantime, we just played our first show in Las Vegas at a benefit for the Mt. Charleston fires. We invite you have a look & a listen to our new live video, 'Funk #49 with Sean McNabb (Dokken) - bass and Scot Coogan (Ace Frehley, Lynch Mob) on drums."
