Destination Anywhere is the second solo studio album by Jon Bon Jovi, released on June 16, 1997[8] and features music from the film Destination Anywhere released in the same year. It follows his successful 1990 soundtrack Blaze of Glory, from the film Young Guns II.

The production and style for Destination Anywhere departs from the hard rock sound of his albums with the group Bon Jovi, such as featuring drum loops, female backing vocals and Jon Bon Jovi himself singing in a lower register in most of the tracks. Only one of his longtime bandmates, keyboardist David Bryan, contributed to the album; though Desmond Child, cowriter of hits such as "Livin' on a Prayer", plays the tuba in the song "Ugly" and is also one of the producers.[9]

During the production of the album, the daughter of Bon Jovi's former personal manager Paul Korzilius died. "August 7, 4:15" is dedicated to Katherine Korzilius.
