I am a native of Los Angeles. I was born on Sunset Boulevard. I've been playing music since I was 4 years old. Played in lots of bands, also playing on many recording sessions.
I have worked with a lot of great and famous musicians. I've had a few small recording contracts, and have my music in feature and indie films, television, on commercial radio, commercials, and shows on the Internet.
I have a large library of original recorded music in all styles, and a large catalog of songs. I produce and instruct other artists, perform shows and play at many private parties.
Happy to work for you and help wherever I can. Thanks for your friendship.
Aaron Wolfson
Stage Setup Requirements:
We perform as a trio: electric guitar; electric bass; and acoustic drums. We use (1) lead and (1) background vocal microphone (Shure SM 57s). We use at least (3) foldback mix monitors on stage. We use standard microphone set up for drums. Depending on the budget for shows, we can add a keyboard player who also doubles on guitar. Mostly we work as a trio.
(We play soft latin jazz for parties, cover great rock music, and perform original rock music.)

I think it's great that music artists support each other, it shouldn't be any other way. But, why are so many that i see on artists pages, always only talking about themselves? It's rare i see a visiting artist on another's page, and they say something nice and particular about a song or 2, or your style, or something?
They as artists should know, it takes love to succeed, and they aren't shy to ask for what they need, you'd think they'd reciprocate the favor they are asking of you.And the Return is always 3 fold, thru my experience.
listened to Helter Skelter, Cat Club- Cool, would be better if the guy with the mouth wasn't so loud at times.
YOU CAN RUN, BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE - excellent! loved it.
HEAT OF PASSION- let's just say this would be a good piece of music for a woman to bed herself with.
okay up late!
mind is crazy, feeling dazy, could write a song but I think Im lazy!
Like most bands or artist on here I would love for you to come check out my music!
heres why I think its worth your time....
cause I write real ass shit, thats felt by real ass people and I have no problem holding back!
if your just another artist like me, trying to get people to hear you I
say keep on, push on, get that music heard! We are musicians not only
are most of us arrogent selfish bastards, but we see life for what it
is, and also what its not, we express what is true emotion! We want to
MAKE PEOPLE FEEL! Make the people feel you! FOR FUK SAK!
come give me a listen, and I'll listen to you to, and let you know what I think.
Im Shavon and its really nice to meet you and be your friend.
WOO HOO
peace
sounds like shavon
ITS OUT!!!!!!!!! my debut album "My Life on the Radio" hit stores yesterday! you can get it digitally on iTunes or order the actual cd on CDbaby.com heres the link:
http://cdbaby.com/cd/joseygreenwell I'd really appreciate your support and if you do get a chance to pick it up....you'll have to for sure let me know what you think ok?
Just passing through to say "HI!” Sending you respect,
peace and love. Hope all is well and that you’ll have a great weekend? Keep
rockin’ ... it's the only thing that matters!
The trick is to stay focused on what you want to happen and let go of what you do not... cuz if you keep seeing things as they are, convincing yourself that you "have to" because that's reality, then it will always be your reality. want to change? it's as simple as changing the who, what, how, why and when of what you look at and FOCUS on... DAILY :)
Tankism #25 Happy Father's Day :) PS: see if you can "see" the picture below. It's pretty cool...
Please accept my apology for the prolonged comment response. I answer every one of my friends personally and it takes some time to catch up to my messages some days. I was very excited to here you like my song, “Ashes Forever”. I have been very skeptical about this new direction I am headed. For the last seven years I have been doing metal, metal, metal. So when I decided to slow it down and put more meaning into my work I though, can I really pull th9is sound off? So, thank you for the reassurance.
I hope to have my CD finished soon. I have been in the studio for the last six months working my butt off on it. I am currently the only member of this project, so I am the only recording artist. Hence the amount of time needed to get the music together. I’ll try to keep you updated as much as possible. Thanks again for your encouragement.
