Blaster Records’ Aaron Lewis will release his first full-length solo album, The Road, in stores November 13. The album will be supported by “The Road Tour,” which begins this weekend and runs through December.
The James Stroud co-produced album features nine-tracks, including the first outside song Lewis has ever recorded titled “Granddaddy’s Gun,” by writers Rhett Akins, Dallas Davidson, and Bobby Pinson. The video for Lewis’ latest single, “Forever,” will debut in the coming weeks on CMT and GAC.
The first leg of the tour will include tourmate Randy Montana visiting over 20 cities (full dates below).
“Touring and connecting with the audience has a huge influence on my music,” says Lewis. “This new record was essentially written and recorded while I was out on the road and the songs really reflect all the emotions that come with that.”
Lewis released a seven-song EP, Town Line, in 2010 that featured his gold-selling single “Country Boy,” featuring George Jones and Charlie Daniels.
