Steven Tyler has gone country with his new single!

Los Angeles - Steven Tyler will release his debut country single next month.

The iconic Aerosmith frontman who has been living in Nashville since the beginning of the year has spent his time collaborating with some legendary songwriters and is now ready for people to hear his change in genre.

Talking about the background to Love Is Your Name, which will act as the first single from his forthcoming album, due in the autumn - he said: "I picked up and headed for Tennessee, and the FIRST DAY in the studio, I recorded a song that became my first single, and if Love Is Your Name, then Nashville's my new girlfriend. I guess you could call that Beginner's Luck."
