Steven Tyler Announces Solo Tour Dates
Steven Tyler has just announced solo tour dates for United States, Canada and Europe this summer together with Nashville’s Loving Mary Band as his backing group. He will be promoting his solo material along with Aerosmith favorites starting 12 June in Lewiston and wrapping up on 7 August in London.
Tickets for this long-anticipated tour can be bought here.
Along with the most popular hits from his 50-year-long career with Aerosmith, Tyler will perform a song from his debut solo LP “We’re All Somebody from Somewhere” released in 2016 after Tyler inked a deal with Big Machine Label Group. The album topped the country charts and landed in the Top 20 of the Billboard 200. The run will include stops in Vienna, Madrid, Trieste, Rome and more, and also include fundraiser gigs in New York and Ohio and festival dates in Spain and Italy. This is the first Tyler’s overseas appearance since he and Aerosmith cancelled the final dates of 2017 Aero-Vederci Baby Tour due to health issues.
When 68-year-old Tyler talked about his switch in genre he explained the band gave him permission and freedom to try out something new. He simply had to follow his inspiration or he’ll end up using drugs again. He had to explore a different music terrain and it gives him a lot of joy. He explained it’s a completely different thing to perform with a band where you are able to tell them to stop playing and just sing a cappella. Tyler is just doing what Tyler does, and that usually involves a few steps into the unknown.
“No great story started with salad,” he joked earlier in an interview “You’ve gotta take risks.” And this one was obviously worth it.
The rock music duo The Sisterhood Band, comprised of Rod Stewart’s daughter Ruby Stewart and Alyssa Bonagura, daughter of Kathie Baillie and Michael Bonagura, will join the famous singer on a few dates. Both singers have been performing since they were kids and are very successful. They formed a band in 2015 and have been opening act on Rod Stewart’s UK tour. They describe their music as “an organic blend of the open melodies of classic West Coast folk and the magnetic swagger of timeless rock.” It’s no wonder Tyler chose them as an opening act.
Steven Tyler will bring you country as he sees it and rock your world with Nashville’s Loving Mary Band.
