Jason Aldean life and biography

Jason Aldean is an American country music singer.

Since 2005, Aldean has recorded for Broken Bow Records, an independent record label for which he has released four albums and twelve singles. His 2005 self-titled debut and 2009 album Wide Open are both certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), while 2007's Relentless is certified gold. Of his singles, six have reached the number one position on the Hot Country Songs charts: "Why", "She's Country", "Big Green Tractor", "The Truth", "Don't You Wanna Stay" (a duet with Kelly Clarkson), and "Dirt Road Anthem", and six more have reached top ten on the same chart.

With My Kinda Party, the Academy of Country Music's former Top New Male Vocalist further cements his uniqueness with a robust15-track project that builds on his personal past while covering new territory. The first single the muscular title track fit very quickly into the jacked-up portion of his concert set list, which already boasts "She's Country," "Crazy Town" and "Johnny Cash." But there's other stylistic landscape to explore, too his first full-fledged duet, with big-voiced pop singer Kelly Clarkson; and an almost rap segment in "Dirt Road Anthem" that suggests Aldean has listened to a little Snoop Dogg in his time.

Wide Open followed in 2009 and its success established Aldean as a major country star. It had three number one singles -- "She's Country," "The Truth," and "Big Green Tractor," which crossed over to the pop Top 20 -- and "Crazy Town" was nearly as big, peaking at number two. Aldean upped the ante with 2010's My Kinda Party, an album that was even bigger than its predecessor thanks to the number one singles "Don't You Wanna Stay," "Dirt Road Anthem," and "Fly Over States," plus "Tattoos on This Town" and "My Kinda Party," both of which peaked at number two.

All of this raised expectations for Night Train, Aldean's fifth album, which arrived in the fall of 2012. Featuring the hit singles "Take a Little Ride," "Night Train," and "When She Says Baby," Night Train was another number one hit for Aldean. He followed it up in 2014 with Old Boots, New Dirt, which also entered the Billboard Top 200 and country charts at number one, partially due to the momentum of the hit single "Burnin' It Down." Old Boots, New Dirt generated three other Top Ten hits -- "Just Gettin' Started," "Tonight Looks Good on You," and "Gonna Know We Were Here" -- that kept it on the charts into 2015. The next year, he delivered his seventh studio album, They Don't Know, whose September 2016 release was preceded by the singles "Lights Come On" and "A Little More Summertime."

In October 2017, while Aldean was on-stage performing at the Route 91 Harvest Festival on the Las Vegas Strip, a gunman began firing on the assembled crowd, resulting in the deadly mass shooting that took the lives of many of the singer's fans. Aldean managed to escape unharmed and appeared the following weekend on Saturday Night Live performing a cover of Tom Petty's "I Won't Back Down." In January 2018 he released "You Make It Easy," the lead single from his Rearview Town album. Completed prior to the Vegas tragedy, Rearview Town appeared in April 2018. Rearview Town spawned four Country Airplay Number Ones—"You Make It Easy," the Miranda Lambert duet "Drowns the Whiskey," "Girl Like You" and its title track—that kept the album on the airwaves into 2019. In November of that year, Aldean returned with his ninth album, 9.

After We Back reached six prior to the release of 9, the album generated two Billboard Country Airplay number ones in 2020: "Got What I Got" and "Blame It on You." Aldean returned in 2021 with "If I Didn't Love You," a ballad duet with Carrie Underwood. "If I Didn't Love You" was the first taste of Macon and Georgia, a double album released in two separate parts. Macon arrived first, released in November of 2021; its companion album Georgia was slated for an April 2022 release.
