Aaron Lewis and The Stateliners will bring their national tour to the Rialto Square Theatre in downtown Joliet on Friday, Feb. 20.

Lewis, the Vermont-born powerhouse, first found success with the 2000s-era hard rock band Staind, according to a news release from the theatre.

And while the 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 music projects have led to two Number 1 Billboard Country Album debuts, 2011’s “Town Line” and 2016’s “Sinner,” plus a platinum collaboration with heroes George Jones and Charlie Daniels (“Country Boy”), and a Gold-certified Billboard Number 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. Lewis’ latest album, “The Hill,” was released in 2024.

Tickets start at $53 and can be purchased online at Ticketmaster.com or in person at the Rialto Box Office.
