Details:
At 10:23 pm on September 21, 1977 in the city of Atlanta, Georgia, Jesus Aaron was born. He was given the name Aaron Peter at birth (It wasn''t until later in life that people began to call him Jesus). As soon as he was old enough to travel (about 2) his parents took him to India, to places well known for their spiritual significance. While there, he was repeatedly and emphatically blessed by a renowned holy man in a manner quite uncommon and rarely, if ever, seen in that place. Two more trips followed thereafter, and the blessings continued. While this may have whispered of things to come, the rest of his childhood seemed fairly normal.
He first began writing poetry and playing guitar around the turn of the millenium. Though he had no musical training to speak of, he picked it up naturally and was soon writing songs. And it was around that time, at open mics and early performances that people began to call him Jesus.. At the university, students would sometimes gather around after class to ask him questions about life or the universe. If one speaks to him about spiritual topics it is very easy to understand why people call him Jesus. But of the iconic handle he says, "I know it sounds so big, but God is really in everything. All is my Father. I see the divine in everyone. People''s awareness and level of consciousness affects how well it flows through them and manifests in the material world, but it is truly omnipresent; I make no apologies for knowing this; nor for employing one of God''s names as my own. It is my own. This form is one the divine has provided for my use, and while beautiful to me, it is really not that important. It is only a vehicle; I exist beyond it. I do certain types of work through it. I also play through it. But it is not me. The name Jesus Aaron is only a handle which befits this form. Nothing more."
Musically he is often compared to Bob Dylan, but has a unique style with influences from many different musical genres. Most of his compositions seem rooted in folk, alternative, and rock styles, but he has shown an aptitude for composing almost every type of music from punk and rockabilly to jazz and even classical pieces, all without knowing much of anything about the technical aspects of music. As he continued playing, the response he was getting naturally led him into the studio where he has recently completed his debut, to be release on the Transcendent Records label.
This five song Enhanced EP is the result of work in five studios, including the famous Tree Sound Studios of Atlanta and Rodney Mills Masterhouse; many talented people have been involved in this project. The record includes his epic 11min. 20sec. song “Kin of Nietzsche” which many say is a song the likes of which we haven''t seen since Dylan in the 60''s. Also featured is the soon to be hit 2nd track “Couture du Jour”, scheduled to be pushed to all forms of radio in the coming months. A music video of the CD’s third track entitled “We Like Pretending” is included on the record, and shares space with his rewritten version of the classic “Man of Constant Sorrow” and his political folk rock song entitled “America Wake Up.” But this EP is just the tip of the iceberg with him. He says five to six more EPs (3 full length albums) are pretty much ready to be layed down in the studio and they will be released over the next 5 years.
At present Jesus Aaron is based out of Atlanta, Georgia, but various tours, festivals, conferences and such are in the works for promoting his debut. The road is calling... and he plans to tour everywhere, all over the US and abroad. There is much to come in the story of Jesus Aaron. Look for very big things indeed from him.
