Aerosmith bassist Tom Hamilton is gearing up for an exciting new chapter in 2025 with his band, Close Enemies. Following their debut performance in Nashville this past October, the band is hitting the East Coast for a string of live dates. The tour kicks off on January 8 in Philadelphia, followed by stops in New York City (Jan. 9), Boston (Jan. 10), Manchester, NH (Jan. 14), and Pawling, NY (Jan. 23). While these five dates are just the beginning, Close Enemies has promised fans that more shows will be announced soon.
Guitar duties are shared by Hamilton’s bass tech Trace Foster and Peter Stroud, who has been a guitarist with Sheryl Crow for 25 years. Drummer Tony Brock, known for his time with The Babys and a 12-year stint with Rod Stewart, provides the rhythm. The band’s frontman is Chasen Hampton, a performer from Oklahoma City with roots in the country music scene.
