Aerosmith BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

No one saw it coming—but just like that, Aerosmith are back in the headlines with a wave of activity set to reshape their legacy in real time. The biggest news is the release of My Only Angel, a new collaboration with British rocker YUNGBLUD, and it marks Aerosmith’s first original single in over a decade. The song—not just a one-off, more is promised on the One More Time EP coming November 21—hit No. 1 on the U.S. iTunes chart in its debut week, and the response online has been electric. Instagram exploded with snippets of Steven Tyler and YUNGBLUD in the studio, Tyler wildly enthusiastic and clearly invigorated to be back in the booth, and YUNGBLUD pausing his own album to throw himself into the Aerosmith sessions. The track listing fans have pieced together includes My Only Angel, Problems, Wild Woman, A Thousand Days, and a 2025 remix of Back in the Saddle. Studio photos that surfaced show Joe Perry and Steven Tyler working in Florida, and rumors are swirling about potential contributions from Lenny Kravitz, though nothing is confirmed.

The drama ramped up when, on September 17, Steven Tyler made a surprise appearance at the Hollywood Bowl, joining the Joe Perry Project—Brad Whitford was already onstage, making it a three-fifths Aerosmith reunion for the first time since 2023, capped with a lively Train Kept A Rollin’. Onstage, Tyler told the crowd they’d been sitting on a “secret” for four months—a sly nod to the brewing YUNGBLUD collaboration. The very next night, YUNGBLUD premiered My Only Angel live in Boston, apologizing that the Aerosmith guys couldn’t be there but promising a torch-passing moment in Aerosmith’s adopted hometown.

Speculation about whether all five members played on the new material is white-hot. Billboard claims a full-band revival while Forbes hints this might be pivoting toward a larger farewell, but radio veteran Eddie Trunk reported that Brad Whitford himself wasn’t involved in the first single, suggesting the core collaboration is Tyler, Perry, and YUNGBLUD. The rest of the new EP’s credits remain a mystery, fueling fan debate across forums. Tom Hamilton’s schedule changes and subtle clues have only deepened the intrigue.

Beyond the studio, Aerosmith’s cultural cachet burned bright at the MTV VMAs tribute to Ozzy Osbourne, with Tyler and Perry joining YUNGBLUD and Nuno Bettencourt for a raucous Mama, I’m Coming Home, just weeks after posting a touching tribute to Osbourne’s passing on Instagram. As fans revisit the classics and newcomers flock to the band’s back catalog, the cross-generational bridge Aerosmith has built with YUNGBLUD is winning both new followers and reigniting the diehards. Social media has documented every twist: Tyler’s candid studio moments, Perry’s cryptic teasers, and forum debates over what comes next—maybe new singles, maybe final tour dates, perhaps even a major festival takeover in 2026, but as of today, all that remains speculation.

What’s certain: Aerosmith’s name is back on the charts, Steven Tyler sounds iconically alive, and after a decade of silence and a cancelled farewell tour, the band is rewriting their ending—one more time.
