Jerry Lee Lewis was born in 1935 in  Ferriday, Louisiana and first made his way to Memphis, Tennessee in November of 1956.  He joined Sun Records where he recorded the hits that made him a star, “Crazy Arms”, “Whole Lotta Shakin'” and “Great Balls of Fire”.  He was a member of the very first class of inductees of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and has earned countless industry awards and accolades, including a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame and the Recording Academy’s Lifetime Achievement Award.  He has truly earned his place as one of music’s greatest singer/songwriters, pianists and musicians.
