Aerosmith is an American hard rock band, sometimes referred to as "T
he Bad Boys from Boston" and "
America's Greatest Rock and Roll Band". Their style which is rooted in
blues-based hard rock, has come to also incorporate elements of
pop, heavy metal and rhythm and blues, and has inspired many subsequent rock artists. The band was formed in B
oston, Massachusetts in
1970. Guitarist
Joe Perry and bassist
Tom Hamilton, originally in a band together called the
Jam Band, met up with singer
Steven Tyler, drummer
Joe Kramer and guitarist
Ray Tabano, and formed Aerosmith. In
1971, Tabano was replaced by
Brad Whitford, and the band began developing a following in Boston. They were signed to
Columbia Records in
1972, and released a string of multi-platinum albums, beginning with their
1973 eponymous debut album.
