Aerosmith is a Grammy award-winning Rock band from Boston, Massachusetts. Aerosmith was one of the premier Rock bands of the 1970’s. The bands vocalist, Steven Tyler, formed the band in 1969 combining his original band Chain Reaction and The Jam Band. With the bands firmly together, the name was changed to Aerosmith.
The band's first concert was at a high school in Mendon, Maine. In order to get bookings, the band would set up outside the union hall of Boston University during lunch and just start doing what they do best. It wasn’t until 1972 when Clive Davis heard the band play in Kansas City that they finally cut a break and was signed to a record contract with Columbia.c
