We chose Steven Tyler because like the Stinger, he is a challenger brand himself with an ageless, audacious spirit.

"With the help of Human, an LA-based music visitor, and Steven Tyler, nosotros created an original music composition that gradually transforms into Tyler's 'Dream On' – a song about the passage of fourth dimension – almost as if it was a afar memory that resurfaced equally he raced back through the years."
