News Release
Writer Andrew Daly sat down with legendary Aerosmith guitarist for a wide-ranging interview where the 73-year-old insisted that new music from the Boston legends could certainly happen.
“There’s definitely a possibility,” says Perry. “I know that Steven [Tyler] has got some stuff in his back pocket, so we’ll see. I’m currently writing stuff for a new Hollywood Vampires album, but after that… What we are definitely doing is remixing some of the early Aerosmith stuff and finding some interesting outtakes, so it’ll be fun to look at that stuff.”
Aerosmith’s last new material appeared on the ‘Music From Another Dimension’ album 13 years ago in 2012, so the band’s fans have been starved of new material. Perry, Tyler, bassist Tom Hamilton, guitarist Brad Whitford, and drummer John Douglas are heading out on the road for the last part of their ‘Peace Out’ tour that was halted in September of 2023 when Tyler developed vocal problems. There were fears the vocalist might never sing again. “It was pretty heavy,” Perry told Andrew Daly. “Imagine being told that you might not ever do it again. It all can be taken away so easily.” Now that Aerosmith are finally back in the saddle it looks like their rejuvenation could be made complete with new music.
