Video: STAIND's AARON LEWIS Performs New Song 'Lost It All' In Corpus Christi
October 24, 2015Fan-filmed video footage of STAIND frontman Aaron Lewis performing a new song called "Lost It All" on October 22 at Brewster Street Icehouse in Corpus Christi, Texas can be seen below.
Lewis is currently working on the follow-up to his first full-length country album, "The Road", which came out in November 2012 via Blaster Records through Warner Music Nashville. The new CD is tentatively due in early 2016.
"It's more good old fashioned traditional country — something that I feel like the country genre needs desperately," Lewis told the Caller-Times about his new music. "There ain't much country in it at the moment."
Asked how the country-music scene has received him so far, Lewis said in a recent interview: "The fact that radio hasn't really come around to playing my songs yet, there is a little bit of a backlash there. It seems like the artists that I end up playing with and doing shows with are fans of what I do. It's just one of those weird things. It's such a good-old-boys network in Nashville, it's so political in Nashville, and I'm not one to necessarily play along; I tend to stick to my guns, and sometimes that's not what they want you to do."
He continued: "Nashville is a machine. It has the writers that write all the songs, and then it has the performers that go into the studio to record them and then go out on tour and play them. And I don't want anything to do with somebody writing songs for me… I'm certainly not gonna change what I'm doing in order to get on radio."
STAIND has been mostly inactive since 2011 and Lewis said in a recent interview that the band is probably going to stay that way for the foreseeable future. Asked by Shout Out Minnesota if the group has any plans, Lewis replied, "Not for a while. Mike Mushok, the guitar player, signed with another band and their new [album] just came out and he’s gonna be busy for three records with that band."
Mike Mushok is now playing in SAINT ASONIA with former THREE DAYS GRACE frontman Adam Gontier. The band's debut album came out July 31.
But Lewis maintains that fans have not seen the last of STAIND, saying, "We didn't break up and at some point STAIND will come back out. I don’t know if we’ll record a record or tour or what the deal will be… so this is what it is for a while."
STAIND has released seven studio albums dating back to 1996, with 11 Top 10 rock singles and four No. 1 tracks to their credit.
