Aaron Lewis and The Stateliners coming to Festival

Aaron Lewis and The Stateliners are bringing their 2026 American Tour to the Festival at Sandpoint as part of the Sandpoint organization’s 2026 summer concert series. 

The band will perform Friday, July 31.

Aaron Lewis, the Vermont-born powerhouse, first found success with Staind — the 2000s-era hard rockers who injected meditative muscle into an era better known for mindless aggression. But while that 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 projects have led to two No. 1 Billboard Country Album debuts — “Town Line” in 2011 and “Sinner” in 2016 — as well as a platinum collaboration in “Country Boy” with heroes George Jones and Charlie Daniels and a gold-certified Billboard No. 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, but he never wrote songs for the stats. No matter the sonic setting, Lewis writes and sings to get his truth out, and his latest album, "The Hill," which was released in 2024, is no different.

Tickets for Aaron Lewis and The Stateliners on July 31 at the Festival at Sandpoint’s 2026 Summer Series are on sale at festivalatsandpoint.com.

The tickets are $77.68, including all taxes and fees. Gates open at 6 p.m. and music begins at 7:30 p.m. 

The concert will be a standard show, meaning the area in front of the stage is a general admission dancing-and-standing area.

The Festival at Sandpoint is a nonprofit organization that hosts an annual summer concert series in Sandpoint. The 2026 event will take place July 30 through Aug. 9 at War Memorial Field on the shores of Lake Pend Oreille.
