Steve Perry's Holiday Auction: Spreading Cheer and Giving Back with Darkives Collectibles
Steve Perry recently held an auction to support the Sweet Relief Musicians Fund's wildfire relief efforts in Los Angeles. Now, he has launched a new auction to benefit Gilead House, an organization that helps unhoused single mothers and their children rebuild their lives. The auction includes 92 items signed by Perry, such as handwritten lyrics, musical instruments, and memorabilia from his time with Journey. Bidding is open on DarkivesCollectibles.com until December 16 at 3 p.m. ET.
In a statement, Perry expressed his gratitude for the support behind his charitable auctions and emphasized the importance of giving back during the holidays. He hopes to make this auction an annual tradition and bring joy to fans while raising money for a great cause. The auction was organized in partnership with Darkives Collectibles, an archival memorabilia platform associated with Steve's record label, Dark Horse Records.
Additionally, Perry released a new animated video for his solo holiday song "This Christmas" on his YouTube channel. The heartwarming video follows a train journey through snowy landscapes and features scenes of people enjoying Christmas activities. "This Christmas" is a jazz-influenced tune from Perry's 2021 solo holiday album, The Season, and is also included in The Season 3, an expanded version released in 2024.
Fans can bid on Perry's handwritten lyrics to "This Christmas" and Journey songs like "Separate Ways" and "Only the Young" as part of the holiday auction. Perry's goal is to spread holiday cheer and make a difference through his music and memorabilia, connecting with fans and supporting important causes. Happy holidays and thank you for being a part of this journey with Steve Perry.
