Doc Coyle releases new cover of Aerosmith’s ‘Livin’ On The Edge’

DOC COYLE has released a new music video!

The new music video, a cover of AEROSMITH‘s Livin’ On The Edge, is the brand new single from the American guitarist, and marks his first venture under his solo project.

“The story of how I came to cover AEROSMITH’s classic tune Livin’ On The Edge is a peculiar one,” says Coyle, reflecting on the origin of the project. “I am a massive AEROSMITH fan, but as an avid teenage MTV viewer, I truly identify with the records they made during the ‘90s. During the pandemic, I recorded an instrumental of the song for BAD WOLVES, but we didn’t have a singer. It was suggested that I lay down vocals for the song. I was intimidated but also enthused by the opportunity.”

“Stemming from who knows where came a vision of making a music video of the song based on the 1993 film Falling Down,” Coyle shares. “The film took a dark path, but I wanted to repurpose the themes for something more positive. The song conjured feelings of adventure and empowerment. Take everything that went bad in the film, and flip it. I wanted to recreate the journey of the original film as much as possible.”

The video, directed by Myles Erfurth, was shot in a run-and-gun, guerrilla-style fashion across the urban landscape of Los Angeles, channelling the raw energy and tension of Falling Down. “We had a small window in the summer of 2024 to make this happen. I had waited long enough. The world needed to hear and see what I had created. Now is the time.”
