Aaron Lewis first found success with Staind, which is the 2000s era hard rockers who injected meditative muscle into an era better known for mindless aggression. But while that band is still very much alive, it was never enough to satisfy Lewis creative drive. Embracing his roots to earn a rare second round of success, a series of solo Country projects has led to two Number 1 Billboard Country Album debuts, TOWN LINE (2011) and SINNER (2016) plus a PLATINUM collab with heroes George Jones and Charlie Daniels (Country Boy), and a GOLD certified Billboard Number 1 with Am I The Only One. His 2022 solo album followed suit, with FRAYED AT BOTH ENDS emerging as the best-selling Country album in America, but he never wrote songs for the stats. No matter the sonic setting, Lewis writes and sings to get his truth out and his latest album THE HILL is no different.
