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.
(Friends from the early days know me as "Ronnie" Wolfson).
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.)

Sometimes when i look around, all i see is misery, despair, frustration and pain...
Then, i close my eyes, take a couple deep breaths, RELAX...And ask myself, "WHAT IF all I saw was what I WANTED TO SEE?" Then, I open my eyes. I see the sun, I see the blue sky, I see my girls smiling back at me, I see life...
And then, lo and behold, I see nothing but OPPORTUNITY...
