Ari Lehman is the actor/singer who has the unique honor of having played the role of the First Jason Voorhees in the Paramount Classic Horror Film "Friday the 13th" (1980). The original "Boy In The Lake" himself Ari played a crucial role in the film's famous final scene in which he suddenly emerges from the icy waters of Crystal Lake. Working with Special Effects Master Tom Savini at an early age gave Ari a deep appreciation for the Horror Greats including Lon Chaney Bela Lugosi Boris Karloff and Vincent Price. Since 2009 Ari records and tours the US and Europe with his Horror Rock Band First Jason based in Chicago.A native New Yorker Ari grew up in Westport CT where he trained in Classical music and Jazz Piano. Recognized at an early age for his musical abilities Ari was presented with an All-State Award for Excellence in Jazz Piano and a generous scholarship to Berklee School of Music by the famous jazz educator Dr. Billy Taylor.Also actively engaged in performance and theatre Ari heard about an audition being held in Westport for a new movie "Manny's Orphan's" about a group of inner-city orphans who play Soccer directed by Sean S. Cunnngham. Ari snuck into the audition and landed the 80-line role of "Roger" a pre-pubescent comic character who is obsessed with girls. This role led to Ari getting the call to play Jason Voorhees in "Friday the 13th" from Sean S. Cunningham himself who famously asked him "Can you swim?" Ari replied "Yes!" and the rest is Horror History.After the release of "Friday the 13th" Ari returned to New York City where he studied Jazz Piano in its breeding ground with the great Joanne Brackeen and enrolled in NYU studying Big Band Orchestration and Jazz Piano with recognized Masters Jim McNeely and Vladmir Shafranov.

In response to their enthusiasm Ari became a regular on the Horror Convention Circuit and immediately saw a great opportunity to give Jason Voorhees a musical voice on the Punk and Metal scene.
