Singer/Songwriter Aaron Lewis Adds Additional Dates to American Patriot Tour

NASHVILLE (CelebrityAccess) – Genre-crossing singer/songwriter and Staind frontman Aaron Lewis has announced additional dates for his American Patriot Tour.

The first leg of Lewis’ solo acoustic tour, announced in January, included more than 50 live dates, with the newly announced dates set to hit Durant, OK, Reading, PA, Charles Town, WV, Detroit, MI and more. Additionally, 2023 will be busy for the known road dog, with dates booked through December.

Lewis’s fourth and latest full album release, Frayed at Both Ends (January 2022), was the top-selling country album in America on release. It peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart, with the hit single “Am I the Only One,” hitting No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart and also holds Lewis’ highest solo position to date on the Billboard Hot 100, debuting at No. 14.

Lewis said of the album, “This is how people who need to work are actually living their lives. Mistakes get made, consequences happen, hearts get broken – and then you have to deal with that. Frayed deals with those things.”

Keeping in line with the name of his tour, the track “They Call Me Doc” tells the story of a triage soldier and was written by US Navy veteran Shaun Bott who was deployed during Operation Iraqi Freedom – and recorded as part of the CreatiVets program. It was played at the funeral of Navy Corpsman Maxton W. Soviak, a fallen service member who lost his life in Kabul, Afghanistan, during a non-combatant evacuation operation. The song also features Vince Gill and Dan Tyminski.

The album’s Deluxe version includes the song “The Third Degree,” which includes lyrics from a poem by Johnny Cash. John Carter Cash, son of the “Man in Black,” permitted Lewis to create the song.

In addition, to his solo tour stops, Staind and Godsmack announced a co-headlining tour back in March – adding over 25 more city stops to Lewis’ schedule. At 51, Lewis shows no signs of slowing down and spent most of 2022 on the road touring solo but joined up with Staind last September for several headlining dates.

2023 is shaping up to be a banner year for Lewis and the band, as they’ve been recording new music. “It’s Been Awhile” since Staind’s last studio effort 12 years ago. The new LP Confessions of the Fallen is due for release in the Fall, and the band dropped the first single, “Lowest in Me,” in April – which currently sits in the Top 10 at Active Rock Radio. Another solo release from Lewis is also in the works, with a release date of sometime this year.

Until then, you can catch Lewis and Staind at any below show dates. (Newly announced solo dates in bold with Staind/Godsmack dates in blue.
