Early Life
Tyler grew up listening to opera and Broadway musicals. The fact that he was born on the 26th of March also meant that Tyler and all people born on that day share their birthday with actor Jim Morrison.
Tyler has always loved music from a young age. He began attending the Leonard Quintano for Young Professionals school from the age of 12 and learned drums. He was in a number of bands and sang lead vocals and played drums. During his teens, Tyler played the drums in a local rock band called Spooky.
Career
Aerosmith was formed when Joe Perry, Tom Hamilton and Steven Tyler met at an early rock show in 1969 and decided to form a band. They were joined by a couple of musicians and the band was named Aerosmith after the band’s lead guitarist, who had a guitar named after him. The band released their eponymous debut album in 1973.
Tyler had a motorcycle accident in 1980 which further damaged his voice. He could hardly sing after the accident. His voice was also severely damaged from years of drug abuse. He also had a severe drug abuse problem that affected him for the rest of his life.
The band checked into rehabilitation, because they realized that if they didn’t get help, there was a chance that they’d be broke, and no one would want to see them because they were no longer relevant.
Their sophomore album ‘Pump’ was out in 1989. The album is considered one of the best albums of the decade and spawned three Top 10 singles on the Billboard Hot 100. The songs dealt with issues such as incest, murder, alcoholism, and drug abuse.
Aerosmith continued to record and continue to make music. Their album ‘Get a grip’ became their best selling album, and people all over the world still listen.
Aerosmith toured throughout the first decade of the new millennium while performing live shows. At the same time they released the albums ‘Just Push Play’ in 2001, and ‘Honkin’ On Bobo’ in 2004. The band’s latest album ‘Music from Another Dimension’ was released in 2012.

Favorite Quotes from Steven Tyler

I’m sure that there are many bands that have stolen from the Stones and have managed to make it sound distinctive. I find it strange that the Stones are complaining about it. There’s no need for such an attitude. If we’re getting a bit too angry about it, it’s a result of our own insecurity. We’re trying to do things our own way.
