LOS ANGELES (AFP) – The future of US supergroup Aerosmith was shrouded in uncertainty Monday after unconfirmed reports that flamboyant frontman Steven Tyler had quit the band.

Tyler, 61, indicated he was parting company with the band after more than three decades in a recent interview with British music magazine Classic Rock.

"I don't know what I'm doing yet," Tyler said. "But it's definitely going to be something Steven Tyler: working on the brand of myself -- Brand Tyler."
