Comedy and music icon Steve Martin just revealed an unexpected — and delightfully quirky — new project with Steven Tyler. The Only Murders in the Building star shared on Facebook that he's playing banjo on a new Aerosmith track.
"I'm playing banjo on a Steven Tyler song! Here's our text exchange for no particular reason," Martin wrote, posting both their back-and-forth and a snippet of the track, "My Only Angel (feat. Steve Martin)", which also features YUNGBLUD.
The song, part of Aerosmith's upcoming EP One More Time with YUNGBLUD (out November 21, 2025), has already hit No. 1 on the Hard Rock streaming charts.

Tyler: "Steve…have you had a chance to…"Martin: "I have not gotten the song! I wrote you but didn't hear back. Oh, I think I mistyped a number. Can you send it now?"Tyler: "We did the same thing…sending again…right now… ST."Martin: "Made for each other."Tyler: "And then some…"Martin: "Still no song….. ah…got it. Hang on."Tyler: "Hip hip."

"Steve… thank you soooo much for playing along with the song… we laid it in and WA LA… you made the acoustic version of the song so, so much better… Now that's something to talk about on Kimmel… so love your spirit… yess hahhhh!"
