Multi-Grammy Award-winning Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductees AEROSMITH and British multi-platinum, award-winning rock star Yungblud have released a new version of "My Only Angel", the first single from their collaborative EP titled "One More Time". Dubbed "My Only Angel (Desert Road Version)", the stripped-down rendition featuring a guest appearance by comedy legend Steve Martin. Watch the official video for it here.
Inspired by the original track's emotional core, AEROSMITH and Yungblud returned to the studio to explore its more vulnerable side. During the session, AEROSMITH singer Steven Tyler — a longtime admirer of Martin — imagined the distinctive sound of a banjo bringing the song to a close. He reached out to Martin, who accepted the invitation and recorded his part remotely. The addition gives the new version its defining final moment: a soulful ending that trades the drive of the original for a grounded, textured feel, with Martin's standout banjo solo carrying the song to its finish.
"I'm playing banjo on a Steven Tyler song!" Steve revealed on Instagram. "Here's our text exchange for no particular reason."
Martin played banjo on some of his early comedy albums, such as "A Wild And Crazy Guy", and has gotten more serious about the instrument in recent years, joining bluegrass bands and releasing music.
Earlier this month, Martin and Alison Brown unveiled their debut collaborative album, "Safe, Sensible And Sane". Out now via Brown's Compass Records, the release features an array of guest artists, including Jackson Browne, Vince Gill, THE INDIGO GIRLS, Tim O'Brien, Jason Mraz and more.
Out on November 21 via Capitol Records, "One More Time" marks AEROSMITH's first new music in over 12 years. Produced by Matt Schwartz, "One More Time" features four original tracks co-written by AEROSMITH and Yungblud, with both AEROSMITH frontman Steven Tyler and Yungblud sharing the vocals, as well as a fiery 2025 mix of the classic "Back In The Saddle".
The "One More Time" EP artwork was designed exclusively by Chrome Hearts' Joe Foti, a first for the luxury brand, and is available now to pre-order digitally as well as limited-edition vinyl.
