AEROSMITH frontman Steven Tyler's new song "Hold On (Won't Let Go)" has been named the new anthem for the Colorado-based bull riding organization Professional Bull Riders' CBS television broadcasts and live events. The track is featured on Tyler's debut solo album, "We're All Somebody From Somewhere", which is being released today (Friday, July 15) via Dot Records, underneath the Big Machine Label Group umbrella. "Hold On (Won't Let Go)" will open PBR broadcasts on CBS Sports and CBS Sports Networks. It will also play at live events and be part of PBR's advertising/marketing campaigns, including a new social media effort starting Friday.
