First Jason, the horror metal powerhouse fronted by Friday The 13th icon Ari Lehman , has officially signed with CDN Records , marking a new chapter in their relentless rise through the heavy music underground. Known for his role as the original Jason Voorhees, Lehman now channels that same menacing energy into every face-melting performance—this time with a keytar slashing through the mix like a machete.
Formed in 2004, First Jason has toured across the US, UK, and Europe, building a devoted cult following through electrifying live shows, a relentless DIY ethic, and genre-defying songwriting. Their unique blend of horror-themed theatrics, jazz-trained musicianship, punk attitude, and world music influences sets them apart in a crowded metal landscape.
“Razor sharp hooks, monster playing and infectious melodies take First Jason to a level that you need to see to believe!” – Spencer Charnas of Ice Nine Kills
Lehman, a classically-trained pianist and NYU alum with a background in jazz, reggae, and Afrobeat, has carved out a sound all his own. With past support slots for major acts like Ice Nine Kills, Avatar, In This Moment, Incantation, and Twiztid, First Jason is now poised for even greater impact under the banner of CDN Records.
