Aerosmith has postponed six concerts planned for this month until January and February 2024 due to vocal cord damage suffered by lead singer Steven Tyler over the weekend.
“I’m heartbroken to say I have received strict doctor’s orders not to sing for the next thirty days,” Tyler said in a statement posted on the band’s social media sites last night. “I sustained vocal cord damage during Saturday’s show that led to subsequent bleeding. We’ll need to postpone a few dates so that we can come back and give you the performance you deserve.”

Last December, Aerosmith canceled the final two dates of a Las Vegas residency due to the undisclosed illness of Tyler.
