Several of Nashville’s top songwriters are featured on Steven Tyler‘s upcoming solo country album, We’re All Somebody From Somewhere, set for release July 15 on Dot Records (Big Machine Label Group).
Among those are Rhett Akins, Nathan Barlowe, Levi Hummon, Brett James, The Cadillac Three’s Jaren Johnston, Hillary Lindsey, Eric Paslay, Brad Warren, Brett Warren, and more.
Tyler co-wrote 12 of the album’s 15 tracks, and co-produced the project alongside T Bone Burnett and Dann Huff, as well as Marti Frederickson and Johnston. In addition to several new tracks, the album includes a rendition of Aerosmith’s 1989 hit, “Janie’s Got A Gun.”
According to an interview last week on The Howard Stern Show, Tyler also confirmed that he and his Aerosmith bandmates are working on a farewell tour in 2017.
“I love this band, I really do, and I want to squash every thought that anybody might have about this … We’re doing a farewell tour, but only because it’s time. We’ve never done that,” Tyler said.
