Mayor David Briley will present the proclamation prior to the world premiere of the new documentary Steven Tyler: Out on a Limb, which opens the 49th annual Nashville Film Festival that night.
Tyler says, "Nashville is a key part of my musical journey and has had an influential place in my career, so this recognition from the city is a tremendous honor. I'm also so touched that the Nashville Film Festival selected Steven Tyler: Out on a Limb to kick off opening night of this year's event with our world premiere."
Two days later, Tyler and his side band, The Loving Mary, will perform in Nashville at The Woods at Fontanel, which is situated on the old estate of country singer Barbara Mandrell.
The documentary will be released on video on demand and digitally on May 15th.
