Before rock ‘n’ roll knew what it was, Jerry Lee Lewis exploded onto the scene — a Southern boy with holy fire in his veins and a devilish grin behind the keys.
In this episode of RATT: Rebel Artists Through Time, we go beyond the legend of the man who smashed stage decorum and turned piano playing into performance art. Through flame-fueled performances and scandal-driven fame, Jerry helped define a genre — and paid the price for it.
As always on RATT, we look at the artist not as a headline, but as a force. Raw, chaotic, unforgettable.
