Steven Tyler (born March 26, 1948, in New York City, NY, as Steven Victor Tallarico) is the lead singer of American rock band Aerosmith and a non-playable character in Guitar Hero: Aerosmith. Though his band previously contributed "Last Child" and "Same Old Song and Dance" to the series (with Tyler, in a way, lending his voice to the latter, since it was taken off the master recording), this is the first time that Tyler's likeness has appeared in a Guitar Hero game. In-game, he appears to sing the songs performed by Aerosmith, while The Singer will perform all songs by other artists (with the exception of King of Rock and Walk This Way, which are performed by DMC).
