  • Bio

    As a founding member, principle (co)songwriter, and electrifying lead guitarist of Aerosmith--America's Greatest Rock & Roll Band--Joe Perry has achieved permanent iconic stature in the pantheon of rock, driving his band, over the course of three decades, to sales of more than 100 million albums, critical acclaim, four Grammy Awards, and induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Joe Perry provides an exciting glimpse of another side of himself with his new self-titled solo album. Still as scorching hot on guitar as he is preternaturally cool in his persona, Joe Perry has created a collection of songs reflecting his deepest personal concerns, from his passion for rock and love of the blues to his keen social conscience and devotion to friends and family.

    "One day I was complaining about a lack of inspiration and my wife, Billie, in her role as muse, said, 'Get down and sing where you belong,'" says Joe. "I felt I busted loose and started singing where my voice was more natural as you can hear on the song 'Back Back Train' (from Honkin' On Bobo). I discovered a whole new place and it was a whole new vehicle for me. I found I was writing music better suited for my vocal range." What about Joe Perry's lyrical inspiration for these tunes? "Well, most of the songs are love songs," he confesses. "Some of them are fast and some of them are slow, that's about it. You sing what you know." ..

    The album's title is as simple and direct as the music Joe's crafted. "It's a statement of it being a solo record that is unadorned," he says. "Nothing else that I thought of felt as good as just calling it what it is."
