About Aerosmith
Aerosmith formed in Boston in 1970 and became one of the best-selling American rock bands, earning the nickname “the Bad Boys from Boston”. After classic ’70s albums such as Toys in the Attic and Rocks, they made one of rock’s great comebacks in the late ’80s and ’90s with Permanent Vacation, Pump and Get a Grip.
The band, with Steven Tyler, Joe Perry and drummer Joey Kramer, were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2001. Their songs range from funky rock grooves to huge power ballads – great material for drummers.
