Aaron Lewis

When brooding Staind frontman Aaron Lewis isn’t crooning nu-metal ballads like “It’s Been Awhile” and “Outside” or bow-hunting whitetail deer, he’s doing his own solo tours featuring some of the country songs he released on his Town Line EP last year. One song from that set even finds the Massachusetts-bred registered Republican sharing the mic with George Jones, Charlie Daniels, and Jon Young on a song called “Country Boy,” though he remains liberal enough to sing about smoking weed.
