Aaron Lewis, (born April 13 1972 in Rutland, Vermont, U.S.), is the lead vocalist and acoustic guitarist of the hard rock group Staind.
Lewis grew up, largely, in Longmeadow, Massachusetts. Aaron Lewis was, before Staind, in a band known as J-CAT with Tori Sands, Chris Ballini, and Staind bandmate Jon Wysocki. An album surfaced on the internet with 9 of J-CAT's performances at Club Infinity in Springfield, Massachusetts. The performances were recorded while Dysfunction was being recorded. Two of Staind's popular singles—"Outside" and "It's Been Awhile"—were both originally performed by J-CAT with somewhat different lyrics.
Lewis is renowned for his songwriting skills and has been nominated for 3 Grammys. His hobbies include fishing, golf and riding his mini dirt bike.

He's also featured on Jimmie's Chicken Shack's song "Falling Out," the only single off their 2004 album re.present
On November 4, 2006, Aaron performed at his old high school in Longmeadow and gave all the proceeds to the music department to fund the department's expenses to buy new equipment and supplies.[citation needed]
