NEW YORK — Legendary rock 'n' roll band Aerosmith is retiring from touring, the group announced Friday.
The band known for “Dream On,” “Walk This Way” and “Sweet Emotion” began its “Peace Out” farewell tour last September, but quickly postponed dates after singer Steven Tyler suffered a vocal cord injury during a show.
"We’ve always wanted to blow your mind when performing. As you know, 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," the band said in a social media post. "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.
