Jason Aldean

Jason Aldean hasn’t yet ascended to the level of one-name country acts like Kenny, Alan and Garth. (That’s Chesney, Jackson and Brooks to y’all for whom there are no one-name country acts.) But the Georgia native’s induction into that top tier may be only a matter of time: In 2011 he hit the upper reaches of Billboard’s Hot 100 with “Dirt Road Anthem” and had the year's biggest-selling country album, My Kinda Party. He kicks off 2013 touring his new album (which hit the charts at No. 1), Night Train.
