Anyone who has experienced a live concert by the band led by charismatic frontman Steven Tyler knows that it is electrifying.
Aerosmith fans have enjoyed this live magic for over 50 years. But now it's over.
Aerosmith have stopped their current "Peace Out: The Farewell Tour". The reason? Steven Tyler's impaired voice. The 76-year-old lead singer has been struggling with a laryngeal fracture since September 2023. A laryngeal fracture is a break in the cartilaginous structure of the larynx.
This fracture has forced the band to completely cancel their initially suspended farewell tour. Tickets that have already been purchased will be refunded by the organizers.
The band writes on Instagram: "As you know, Steven's voice is an instrument like no other. He has worked tirelessly for months to get his voice back to where it was before his injury. We have seen him struggle despite having the best medical team on his side. Unfortunately, it's clear that a full recovery from his vocal injury is not possible."
Aerosmith therefore had to make a heartbreaking and difficult but necessary decision.
