Aerosmith Postponing Farewell Tour Due to Steven Tyler Vocal Cord Injury
Aerosmith is postponing their “Peace Out” farewell tour due to issues related to Steven Tyler’s vocal cord injury.
The band shared in a statement, “Unfortunately, Steven’s vocal injury is more serious than initially thought. His doctor has confirmed that in addition to the damage to his vocal cords, he fractured his larynx which requires ongoing care.”
The band noted, “He is receiving the best medical treatment available to ensure his recovery is swift, but given the nature of a fracture, he is being told patience is essential.”
Tyler added in his own personal statement, “I am heartbroken to not be out there with Aerosmith, my brothers and the incredible Black Crowes, rocking with the best fans in the world. I promise we will be back as soon as we can!”
The remaining dates of the “Peace Out” farewell tour will be rescheduled for 2024. Exact dates have yet to be determined.
Aerosmith postponed their remaining September tour dates earlier this month. At the time, it was revealed Tyler suffered vocal cord damage that led to “subsequent bleeding.” Doctors also instructed him to go on vocal rest and not sing for 30 days.
We send our well wishes to Tyler and the entire Aerosmith camp during this difficult time. We can’t wait to see them return to the road.
