The cross-generational supergroup of Aerosmith‘s Steven Tyler and Joe Perry and British rocker Yungblud has released a new lyric video for their debut single, “My Only Angel.” The visual arrives one week after the song’s release and provides another look into the powerful collaboration that Tyler describes as “plugging into pure electricity!”
The track is the first offering from the trio’s upcoming collaborative EP, One More Time, a project born from what all three artists describe as an explosive and immediate creative chemistry in the studio. The origin story, according to guitarist Joe Perry, began with a simple writing session in his Sarasota studio.
“A year ago, I got a call that Yungblud wanted to come to Sarasota to work with me and write some songs,” Perry said in a statement. “I had heard his single and said, ‘Hell yeah, this guy’s got the juice.’ Four days in the studio and we got to know each other… I called Steven and told him, ‘You have to hear this guy Yungblud — he’s the real deal.’ Fast forward to May and we’re in the studio with Steven recording new music. The end result turned out to be an amazing collaboration between Aerosmith and Yungblud. Let the music do the talking.”
Frontman Steven Tyler was equally effusive about the partnership.
“The decision to meet Yungblud and make this music with him…was like plugging into pure electricity!” Tyler said. “For Joe and me it was another cosmic collision… to find ourselves in the studio with this outrageously talented and positively wild animal named Dom… When we sang and played together for the first time, there was an immediate unspoken vibration throughout the studio… it reminded me of the wheels of the car vibrating my seat as the boys and I drove into Boston 50 years ago for the very first time. It had that same deep intimate pressure of necessity… Rock and roll becomes timeless when you pour your heart and soul into it… that’s when the magic happens.”
For Yungblud, the experience was the fulfillment of a lifelong dream.
“Aerosmith have been such a staple of rock and roll and showmanship for me, so I’ve been ready for this my whole life,” he shared. “As soon as we entered the studio, the chemistry exploded and the songs just poured out of us. It’s the kind of collaboration that young me wouldn’t even dream of so to sit here holding a vinyl in my hand that says Aerosmith and Yungblud on it is truly blowing my mind… I’m making records with my heroes… and rock ‘n’ roll is waking the f**k up whether you like it or not.”
One More Time is scheduled for release on November 21 via Capitol Records. The five-track EP features four new original songs and a new 2025 mix of the Aerosmith classic “Back In The Saddle.”
