Aaron Nathans’ mission is to write songs about things no one else has written about before. Like a song about the bond between a guy and his barber. Or the onslaught of the outside world upon a new parent. Surely somebody’s written that song, right? Ok, find it.
Aaron, who lives in the Philadelphia area, describes his songs as wild-mind, bittersweet acoustic music. He’s one of a million guitar-slinging singer songwriters, but you’ve never heard anyone quite like Aaron, with his warped sense of humor and off-kilter view of the world.
His shows include humorous, meandering stories that will keep you every bit as captivated as the music itself — beautiful guitar work, catchy melodies, and his sweet baritone voice and eye-popping vocal range.
Aaron’s songwriting was honored by the Kerrville Folk Festival, which named him a New Folk Finalist in 2018 and 2011.
Aaron plays solo, as well as one-half of the guitar-cello duo Aaron Nathans & Michael G. Ronstadt. His duo shows with Michael are high-energy events, full of musical combustion as Aaron plays off Michael’s brilliant cello work, as well as Michael’s own mind-bending, wildly creative songs.
