BIO
Beginning in Los Angeles, spending time in Portland Oregon, following cheap rent to Boston, to finding love in Eastern Washington, 20-something Aaron Schroeder has called Kennewick his home for the past year. It is there he released his debut record Southern Heart In Western Skin, an album soaked in traditional instrumentation (lap-steel guitars, cellos, accordions, violins, stand-up bass, harmonica) that keeps pop sensibility as a solid foundation.
"I listen to a lot of classic artists like Bob Dylan, Leadbelly, Johnny Cash, Billy Bragg, but I also enjoy lots of modern acts like Belle & Sebastian, The Mountain Goats, Silver Jews." Not only is Aaron a true fan of music but he is also an avid reader, citing authors such as Fydor Dostoevsky, Henry Miller, Haruki Murakami, Knut Hamsun as influences. "Often time my lyrics are adaptations of things I've read, including various Yiddish, Arabic, and American folk tales."
