Aerosmith bassist Tom Hamilton has been forced to pull out of part of the band's summer tour as he recovers from surgery, according to their website.

A statement said David Hull, who played in the Joe Perry Project, will replace Hamilton as he "recuperates from non-invasive surgery".

Earlier this summer, the band postponed seven shows after Steve Tyler, 61, injured his leg at a gig in June.

Guitarist Brad Whitford also missed some dates after hurting his head.
