<p><b>Aaron Lewis and the Stateliners</b><br />
Aaron Lewis, the Vermont-born powerhouse first found success with Staind -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 have led to two No. 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 No. 1 with "Am I The Only One" in 2021. Lewis' 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 (2024) is no different.</p>
<p><b>Travis Tritt</b></p>
<p>Travis Tritt, with over 35 years in country music, remains a powerhouse performer, selling out shows worldwide. His career began in 1989 with his debut album Country Club, blending Southern rock, blues, and gospel, leading to success alongside artists like Garth Brooks and Alan Jackson. Tritt's hits like "Help Me Hold On" and "I'm Gonna Be Somebody" earned him numerous accolades, including a CMA Horizon Award and membership in the Grand Ole Opry.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>His 1991 album It's All About to Change went triple platinum, solidifying his place in the genre. Tritt's distinct style, free of a cowboy hat, and his soulful voice set him apart. He's sold over 30 million albums, won two Grammys, and performed at major events like the 1996 Olympics and two Super Bowls.</p>
<p>In 2012, Tritt launched his own label, Post Oak Recordings, and released The Calm After... In 2016, he captured his live performance at the Franklin Theatre with A Man and His Guitar - Live From The Franklin Theatre. His compilation album Very Best of Travis Tritt achieved gold status in 2015.</p>
<p>In 2018, Tritt joined Shania Twain and Jake Owen on Real Country, and in 2022, released Set In Stone, showcasing his dedication to authentic country music. His 2023 debut gospel album, Country Chapel, reflected his Southern roots.</p>
<p>In 2024, Tritt's relentless touring continues to captivate fans, cementing his status as one of country music's most enduring artists.</p>
