Career

2016–2017: Career beginnings and Same Kind of Different

Main article: Same Kind of Different

Lewis was inspired to pursue music after watching a live Oasis DVD in 2005. Lewis says "I remember watching Liam Gallagher walk out with this hat and red jacket and watching him with Noel, they were just the coolest guys ever. I spent the next five years watching every Oasis video – Noel Gallagher basically taught me how to write songs."[1]

Lewis signed his recording contract with Specific Music in 2014, and a major contract with Island Records and Universal Music Australia in March 2016.[2] Lewis released his debut single "Waves" on 30 September 2016 which peaked at number 12 on the Australian ARIA Charts. The song was featured in a number of American television shows such as Suits, Greys Anatomy, Valor, Riverdale and Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments.[3][4] The song has since been certified 6 x Platinum by ARIA.[5]

Lewis released "Need You Now" in April 2017 and his debut extended play Same Kind of Different in 12 May 2017 which peaked at number 27 on the ARIA Album Charts. Lewis received five ARIA Award nominations at the ARIA Music Awards of 2017.[6] "Lose My Mind" and "Chemicals" were also released as singles from the EP and have been certified Platinum and Gold respectively.[7][5]

2018–present: A Place We Knew

Main article: A Place We Knew

In June 2018, Lewis released "Be Alright". The single reached number one in Australia for five consecutive weeks,[8][9] becoming his first chart-topper in the country, and has been certified sextuple platinum in Australia.[5] It also reached number one in Belgium, top five in New Zealand, Sweden and Ireland, top 10 in the Netherlands and Switzerland, top 20 in the United Kingdom and Scotland, top 30 in the United States and number one in the Billboard Adult pop chart. In January 2019, Lewis released "7 Minutes".[10] Lewis released his debut studio album A Place We Knew on 22 March 2019.[11] Lewis performed "Be Alright" and "Waves" at the 2019 AFL Grand Final.

Dean is due to release a new single in collaboration with Dutch DJ/Producer Martin Garrix on October 31st called 'Used to Love' [12].
