ABOUT

Hello! I'm Aaron.

Welcome to my page! I'm a 37-year-old rock musician based in Oxnard, California. With years of experience under my belt and a deep passion for music, I'm currently looking to collaborate and create something fun with fellow musicians. Whether you're a guitarist, drummer, bassist, or have any other musical prowess, I’d love to explore our potential together.

A bit more about me:

Instruments: I primarily play guitar, bass and sing. I've been learning drums and am decent at it. I can also play a bit of keys. I’m also very into recording and have a modest home studio. I love writing my own songs, as well as recording and performing them. Also down to learn and play covers. I’m working on recording some new demos and have a few that I’m proud of.

Experience: I've played in a few bands on vocals, guitar and/or keys and have a modest number of live performances and studio sessions under my belt.

Goals: I’m aiming to collaborate with as many musicians as I can and am committed to regular rehearsals, live performances and recording albums.

What I’m looking for:

Dedication: Commitment to regular practice and a serious attitude towards making music, with the understanding that I have a typical Monday - Friday 8 - 3 day job.

Creativity: Musicians who bring their unique style and energy, willing to experiment and blend different sounds. Ideally it would be a collaborative co-writing and co-singing scenario, but I’m open to being the primary songwriter and vocalist.

Team Player: Easy-going and collaborative, good communication skills, ready to give and receive constructive feedback. I’m open to collaborating with any gender, race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, political affiliation, etc. Zero tolerance for racism, prejudice or any sort of bigotry/hate speech. That’s just not my style.

Let’s make music!

If you’re in the Oxnard area or nearby and this sounds like it could be a good fit, I’d love to hear from you. Let's connect, jam, and see where our musical journey can take us. Please contact me through this website, and let’s create something that resonates and brings us joy and fulfillment.
