(Classic Rock) Steven Tyler says he can't fully explain Nashville's influence on musicians - but he is 100% confident in its power. The Aerosmith frontman released his country solo album We're All Somebody From Somewhere in July, having written and recorded it in Nashville, Tennessee - the spiritual home of American country music.
And he was so impressed with the results of his album and the vibe of the city that he's moved there full time. Tyler tells Classic Rock: "I came to Nashville. I rented a house. Now I just bought a house, so I'm living here full-on. It's a musical Mecca. I co-wrote with everyone down here, and I think I've done some of my best work through this country head.
"This town still has the passion for music. It hasn't lost it through business and money, which may be big here but the music aspect still has the passion. Artists come here come from all over the world to be part of it, and there's so much music dripping out of the honeycomb of this town that I'm in it.
"I'm in it neck-deep. I'm going to stay here, I'm going to live here. I love it here." Read more here.
