Aerosmith has officially retired from touring due to a serious vocal injury sustained by their front man, Steven Tyler. The decision comes after Tyler, 75, suffered significant damage to his vocal cords, including a fractured larynx, which requires extended and ongoing medical care. This injury was discovered to be more severe than initially thought, leading to the cancellation and rescheduling of the remaining dates on their “Peace Out” farewell tour to sometime in 2024 (The Independent) (Peoplemag).

The band, which includes original members Joe Perry, Tom Hamilton, and Brad Whitford, alongside drummer John
Douglas (who replaced Joey Kramer), had planned a comprehensive tour with 40 shows scheduled between September 2023 and January 2024. However, after performing just three dates, Tyler’s vocal issues forced them to halt the tour (Peoplemag).

In their statement, Aerosmith emphasized that Tyler is receiving the best possible medical treatment and must follow strict doctor’s orders to ensure proper healing. Despite the disappointment, Tyler expressed his heartbreak at being unable to perform but promised fans that the band would return as soon as possible. The group has also assured ticket holders that all previously purchased tickets will be honored for the rescheduled dates, with refunds available for those who cannot attend (The Independent) (Peoplemag).
This marks a significant moment in Aerosmith’s long and storied career, which began in 1970. Over the decades, they have become one of the most iconic rock bands, with numerous hits like “Dream On,” “Sweet Emotion,” and “Walk This Way.” The decision to retire from touring is a poignant end to their live performances, though their music and legacy will undoubtedly continue to inspire fans around the world (The Independent) (Peoplemag).
