TESLA Debut Official Music Video For Cover Of AEROSMITH's "S.O.S. (Too Bad)"

Tesla have released the official music video for "S.O.S. (Too Bad)", a bonus track from their Full Throttle Live album that released on May 26. The album was recorded live at Full Throttle Saloon in Sturgis.

"S.O.S. (Too Bad)" is an old Aerosmith song that Tesla loves. The 1970s era of Aerosmith plays a huge musical influence on Tesla. Jeff Keith and Frank Hannon list Aerosmith’s Live Bootleg as one of their favorite albums of all time.

“As a young guitarist in 1978, I studied Aerosmith’s Live Bootleg! album, learning all the raw guitar licks they played live. When it came time to pick a song to top off Tesla’s new live album.. we chose a classic riff rocker from that legendary live album to pay tribute to Aerosmith and the raw realness of such a great guitar riff!,” says Frank Hannon.

"S.O.S. (Too Bad)" is a classic song that translates live with Tesla. Recorded and filmed live in Frank Hannon’s garage, "S.O.S. (Too Bad)" rocks hard!

Tesla is notorious for one thing; being a high-energy, 100% live, kick-ass rock and roll band in concert. Full Throttle Live captures this essence from a stop at the Sturgis Bike Rally in the year 2022 at the infamous saloon that hosts many motorcycle rock and roll parties, and this inspired the band to put on even more of a heavy show.

Independently recorded, mixed, and produced by bassist Brian Wheat and guitarist Frank Hannon, this new live album truly captures Tesla in pure honest form and even dives deeper into their roots by recording a live version of the 1974 Aerosmith classic “SOS Too Bad” as a bonus track. The heavier song choices range from “Miles Away” to more recent hard releases like “Time To Rock!” and “Cold Blue Steel”. But don’t worry there are old Tesla classics captured too like “Changes” and “Lazy Days, Crazy Nights” all recorded as Tesla is best...100% Full Throttle Live!
