Aaron!!
Conway, Arkansas
You know, while writing this i want to sound epic and catchy.
i want to fit in while standing apart - which doesn't make much sense,
does it? .... No… that’s lame. Let’s start over…
My name is Aaron!¡ [aka Joe Average] I’m just another kid from nowhere with a cliché underdog story, filled with ups and downs, a few wins and a few losses. i Make music because it’s the only thing I’ve ever dreamed of doing since i was 4 years old.
This chase has taking me all over the country - which is not always as glamorous as it sounds. Sometimes it’s fingers crossed, a backpack, a toothbrush, a 1000 hour ride on a uncomfortable greyhound to arrive at a smoke-filled, hole-in-the-wall venue. Awkward hellos and goodbyes with 10 hipster kids who are way cooler than i am - all for 50 bucks and a hand job. …Jk about the handjob ..
It’s funny how when you’re in love, you sacrifice anything and everything for that someone or something.
i’ve done a million shows - some with people you may know (Big Sean, Big K.r.I.t., Curren$y, Yelawolf, Twista, Devin the Dude, Ying Yang Twins etc), and some you don’t.
In the past 2 years me and Apollo Lane have made and released 6 mixtapes (High 5's and Apple Pies, Lizards & Robots, WUPN, Hello & Smile, Netflix & Chocolate Milk and LLGB). We’re working on the 7th as we speak, Penguin meets Monkey, which is due for release on Valentine's Day 2014.
i guess the whole point of this paragraph is to sum up who i am as a artist .. i am a storyteller, i’m flaws most people hide, i’m brutal honesty, i’m a movie in motion, I’m now, i’m whoever or whatever i remind you of, i’m a disaster waiting to happen, i’m Billy Bob Thorton in Sling Blade “mmmmm hhhmm”, i’m exagerated drunk stories, i’m me, i am you.
