Aerosmith Release Dream On (Boston Strong 2014)

08/01/2014
. (hennemusic) Aerosmith's Steven Tyler and Joe Perry have released a new arrangement of the band's 1973 classic, "Dream On", to honor the victims of the 2013 Boston Marathon bombings.

Tyler and Perry recorded a performance of "Dream On (Boston Strong 2014)" with the Southern California Children's Chorus this past spring and have now released it on iTunes.

Aerosmith also performed "Dream On" during the Boston Strong Concert benefit last May, and were joined by the Southern California Children's Chorus for the tune during their concert at The Forum in Inglewood, California on Wednesday.

"The tragedy that took place during the Boston Marathon was unfathomable, but Boston is incredibly resilient and became even stronger," says Tyler. "I am so honored to release this version of "Dream On" and to be able to have had the Southern California Children's Chorus perform with us last night was a beautiful moment, a true gift from up above."

"The heinous act that took place during the Boston Marathon which shook not only the city but the world and touched us all demanded a positive response," added Perry. "Boston Strong was that response and gave an example of our city's inner strength. I would like to think that the strength of our performance on 'Dream On' last night with the Southern California Children's Chorus in LA at the Forum was another rallying point for the goodness in all of us."
