Close Enemies: Rocking the Scene with 'Rain' and More

Close Enemies, a band featuring Tom Hamilton, Tony Brock, Peter Stroud, Trace Foster, and Chasen Hampton, has unveiled the official music video for their track "Rain." The song is part of their upcoming debut album set to be released in March through TLG|ROCK, distributed by Virgin Music Group. Despite their name, the band members are close friends with impressive musical backgrounds.

The band came together three years ago after AEROSMITH went on hiatus due to Steven Tyler's vocal issues. Close Enemies offer a fresh rock experience that combines grit, skill, and the energy of seasoned performers. They have released several singles, including "More Than I Could Ever Need," "Rain," "Sweet Baby Jesus," "Inside Out," and their debut single, "Sound Of A Train."

The formation of Close Enemies was a result of collaborations between the band members. Trace and Peter had been working on another project when Tom approached them with song ideas during AEROSMITH's break. The band's live debut took place in Nashville in 2024, and Tom Hamilton expressed excitement about the band's progress and the positive reception from fans.

Tom Hamilton praised Chasen Hampton's vocal abilities, describing him as a gifted singer who brought their songs to life. The band members have been enjoying their time on the road, gaining confidence and tightening their performances with each show. They have also incorporated AEROSMITH classics like "Sick As A Dog" and "Sweet Emotion" into their setlist, putting their unique spin on the iconic tracks.

Close Enemies' journey has been marked by collaboration, hard work, and a shared passion for music. The band's dedication to their craft and the positive response from fans have fueled their excitement for the upcoming album release. With their combined experience and musical prowess, Close Enemies are poised to make a lasting impact in the rock music scene.
