Jeff Gutt

There's a lot of downtime when we're not on stage leading up to the gigs.

I felt I had a good ear, and I had the ability to sing like my influences.

I've been through the music industry and with the Internet the music industry is not what it used to be.

No one will ever fill Scott's shoes and I'm not trying to - he's a legend. But these songs deserve to be performed and people want to hear them. I'm just honored that the guys chose me to help them continue to build this band's legacy.

Making music with people is a very intimate process.

I've had close chances of success, and sometimes politics and people don't work out.

At the end of the day, I'm here for my son and our future, to be the dad I always wanted to be and in the position I always wanted to be in.

There's so many STP songs that are just classic to me, and just so influential in my musical growth.
