about
story first, then soundcomposer · producer
multi-instrumentalist
Aaron built his career on stages before he built it in studios. As a Music Director and multi-instrumentalist he has worked with Sara Bareilles, eaJ, Backstreet Boys, Nate Ruess, Florida Georgia Line, Tyler Hubbard, and others, making real-time calls in the heat of the moment.
That instinct carried straight to picture. Music only works when it serves what is happening on screen, so every score starts with the story: what does this moment need, and how does the music get out of its way so it can land.
Today he writes and produces from his studio in Nashville, Tennessee, working directly with agencies, brands, and filmmakers. His score for Chevrolet's "Follow Your Own Road" earned a Gold Telly Award for Best Score and Sound Design, his songs for the short film "Take It All the Way" won the global Best Song award at the 48 Hour Film Project's Filmapalooza, and he's been invited back time and time again to speak at Berklee College of Music.
