BraveWords is rocking out with timeless Canadian icon Lee Aaron as she gears up for the March 25th release of an album that's ready to ignite her career, Fire And Gasoline!

About the album she says: "Fire And Gasoline is a rock n' roll record, and I think it would have been a huge mistake to make an album that sounds like something I did before."

"Tomboy" was inspired by her daughter. "In the history of Lee Aaron, I've always embraced themes of female empowerment. I look at my daughter and I see that she just marches to the beat of her own drum. Me and her are kind of in the same place right now."

Lee Aaron's new album, Fire And Gasoline, will be released on March 25th. The complete tracklist is as follows:

"Tomboy"
"Fire And Gasoline"
"Wanna Be"
"Bittersweet"
