MP3 Aaron Booth - Transparent
10 MP3 Songs
POP: Folky Pop, POP: Delicate
Details:
Aaron Booth''s songs draw on the soul of americana, the spirit of classic pop, and the craft of The Brill Building writers. He lives in Toronto, Canada.
Transparent, released independently in 2001, is an inviting and intimate folk-pop record. Its sparse sound reflects a solo artist spending much time on the road. Reaching #6 on national campus radio, it was a sleeper hit of summer 2002: "[Transparent] puts me in a similarly reverent position as the Ron Sexsmith debut." (comes with a smile UK).
Initally a bedroom recording recluse, Aaron began performing publicly in the early 1990s in Calgary, Alberta. He quietly worked his way through the local indie scene until eventually emerging as one of the city''s most celebrated artists.
After several national tours opening for Ottawa''s Snailhouse (ex-wooden stars), plus shared stages with Richard Buckner, Jon Frusciante, The Sadies, Carolyn Mark, Julie Doiron and showcases at Toronto''s Wavelength Series, Aaron relocated to Toronto in 2001. He has since recorded two studio albums with Ottawa producer Dave Draves (kathleen edwards).
His latest, Our Last Escape, is a sophisticated pop album with big arrangements for harmonies, horn, flute, vibraphone and plenty of other vintage treasures plucked from the walls of Little Bullhorn Studio. OLE was released by Endearing Records in March 2004. "Aaron Booth is shaping up to be one of the most promising Canadian singer-songwriters and Our Last Escape is one of the year''s first really good Canadian albums." Exclaim!
Aaron also co-produced the latest release by Hot Little Rocket, composed music for comedy/performance artist, The Spam Avenger, and he created music for a dance by Anik Bouvrette, which has been performed at The National Arts Centre.
Plans for 2004 include the release of a split EP with Finnish pop group, Treeball, a tour of the U.K., Finland and much of Europe in September, and a tour of Japan in October.
