(WDNews) – Aerosmith is officially retiring from touring, the band announced on Friday. The legendary rock group has decided to cancel the rest of their touring dates due to Steven Tyler’s ongoing struggle to recover from a vocal injury he suffered last year.
In a heartfelt statement released on social media, the band explained the tough decision. “Steven’s voice is an instrument like no other. He has spent months tirelessly working on getting his voice to where it was before his injury,” they shared. “We’ve seen him struggling despite having the best medical team by his side. Sadly, it is clear that a full recovery from his vocal injury is not possible.”
The band expressed their sorrow over the situation, stating, “We have made a heartbreaking and difficult, but necessary, decision — as a band of brothers — to retire from the touring stage.”
