One of music's most recognizable and dynamic performers, Steven Tyler has been cited by Rolling Stone Magazine as "one of the greatest singers of all time". Tyler and Aerosmith have sold more than 150 million records worldwide, and he has won four GRAMMY® Awards, six American Music Awards, four Billboard Music Awards and an Emmy® Award. In addition to having nine number one hits, Aerosmith has received 25 Gold, 18 Platinum and 12 multi-Platinum album certifications. Tyler's highly-anticipated upcoming solo album is scheduled for release later this summer on Big Machine Label Group's Dot Records.

Steven Tyler & the Loving Mary Band join the one-of-a-kind 2016 Iowa State Fair Grandstand Concert Series with other top entertainment already announced: Newsboys with special guest Francesca (August 11), Brett Eldredge (August 13), Jason Derulo (August 14), Dierks Bentley with special guest Tucker Beathard (August 15), Rock Hall Three For All: Heart with Joan Jett and the Blackhearts and Cheap Trick (August 16), An Evening with Jeff Dunham (August 18), and Lady Antebellum (August 21).
