Aaron began his musical journey at the age of 6, starting on the drums and a year later, switching to the saxophone. His first musical experiences were in the church where he developed his musical talent for most of his youth. Playing in church introduced Aaron to music on a very passionate level, which later became the key for developing his signature sound. Aaron's tutelage came from the older, established musicians who not only mentored and showed him how to play the instrument, but more importantly showed him how to perform. This training would lead to his first paid performance by the age of 10.
By the age of 13, Aaron was tested by Dr. Kenneth Klaus and Professor Charlotte Pipes of Nicholls State University for the State of Louisiana's Talented and Gifted program. Aaron's talent was further evaluated by the famous jazz pianist Ellis Marsalis, who recommended that Aaron attend the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts (N.O.C.C.A) which has been known for producing such talented artists including: Branford and Wynton Marsalis, Harry Connick Jr., and Terence Blanchard.
After graduating from N.O.C.C.A., Aaron was offered an opportunity to play in Terence Blanchard's band. While touring with Terence, Aaron got the chance to work with many renowned artists such as: Wynton Marsalis, Roy Hargrove, filmmaker - Spike Lee, Stevie Wonder, Wyclef Jean from the Fugees, Teena Marie, Anita Baker, and many more.
In 2002, Aaron was a finalist in the Thelonius Monk International Saxophone Competetion. This event showcased the best saxophone players in the world. At the conclusion of the competition, Aaron knew it was time to make his move. Later that year Aaron moved to Los Angeles where he met songwriter Michael Alan Henderson. The two collaborated on an instrumental project to introduce a new musical sound that would breathe new life into the music industry. Aaron's Debut Album, "Turn Up The Heat", due to be released in early 2007, embodies the sound of a younger generation of musicians like Aaron who are taking the music to another level.

SINCE THE RETURN FROM HER STAY ON THE MOON LUCIANNA LISTENS LIKE SPRING AND SHE TALKS LIKE JUNE
Now that she's back in the atmosphere With drops of Jupiter in her hair She acts like summer and walks like rain Reminds me that there's time to change...
Tell me did you sail across the Sun,did you make it to the Milky Way? to see the lights all faded and that heaven is over rated...
Tell me did you fall for a Shooting Star? One without a permanent scar...
And,"DID YOU MISS ME",while you were, "LOOKING AT YOURSELF", out there?
Now that she's back from that Soul Vacation Tracing her way through the Constellation She checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo Reminds me that there's time to grow...
Now that she's back in the atmosphere I'm afraid that she might think of me as plain ol'Jane Told me a story about a man who is afraid to fly, so he never did, never really knew why...
Tell me did the Wind sweep you off your feet, did you finally get the chance to dance along the Light Of Day, or head back to the Milky Way?
Tell me did Venus blow your mind? was it everything you wanted to find...
And,"DID YOU MISS ME",while you were, "LOOKING FOR YOURSELF",out there?
I HOPE YOU SAW YOURSELF AMONG THE STARS,I HOPE YOU FOUND YOU JUST AS YOU ARE!
