Joe Perry recently addressed questions regarding Aerosmith’s future. Speaking to Guitar World, Perry opened up on the band’s collaboration with Yungblud and what lies ahead.
The guitarist discussed the band’s recent work on the song “One More Time” with the young artist. He described how the unexpected partnership came together and evolved into a full production effort.
“It was something we really hadn’t planned on,” Perry said.
“Then after it was done we had promotion, photoshoots and rehearsals morning to night. The songs are inspired by him working with us, and us being inspired by working with him. There’s a lot of great guitar players and bands out there, but Yungblud really has the stuff, so we thought we’d throw our lot in.”
When asked about the possibility of more material from Aerosmith, Perry highlighted that retirement is not on the horizon for the legendary rock band.
“I can’t really say. If this is the last thing that we do, it’s great,” Perry said. “But I’m not retired yet. Steven doesn’t think he’s retired. Who knows? We’ve still got some juice left!”
The band has stepped back from the road, but their studio work remains active. We will have to wait and see what the future holds for the band.
