Steven Tyler performed the Aerosmith classic, “Dream On”, during a recent visit to the Recovery Unplugged Drug Treatment Center in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Tyler teamed up with Recovery Unplugged Creative Director – and original Aerosmith rhythm guitarist – Richie Supa to perform songs for clients at the facility.
Tyler reportedly took photos with staff and clients following a presentation that saw the singer and Supa tell stories from their 40-plus years of shared history and friendship.
“Today was one of the best days of my life because at Recovery, I saw God here,” explains Tyler. “I saw a bunch of kids that are going to take this program seriously because of Richie Supa.”
“This was very, very special for me,” he added, “because in recovery, the only way to keep it is to give it away and today was just as beautiful as beautiful gets.”
The pair of rockers also performed Aerosmith’s 1993 smash, “Amazing”, which the two co-wrote.
Recovery Unplugged combines traditional and cognitive behavioral rehabilitation approaches by using music as a catalyst to break down defenses, inspire, and motivate the change necessary for long-term recovery and sobriety.
