We talk to Stephen Pearcy - Singer and Frontman of legendary Hollywood Hard Rock band RATT. Stephen recalls his days of travelling from San Diego to the bright lights of Hollywood in the late 1970s after hearing tales of an amazing rock n roll band on the brink of super stardom. That band would be a young Van Halen who Stephen would befriend and their influence would be core to his attitude and approach to push RATT from the clubs to multi-platinum status and arena sized world tours. We talk about his on going passion and love for the music scene he helped kickstart and how he is putting it in the spotlight with his new multi-media project Backstage Past. Stephen Pearcy proves he can still hold his own and continues to flaunt his iconic persona and have his music and songs loved by millions to this very day.
