news: hey everyone i'm busy recording my new record "on the run"! it will be out this summer. so before you know it i'll be hitting the road & coming to your town!!!...please stay tuned :-* ..aj
with humble upbringings in a struggling working class family, becoming something other than ordinary was neither celebrated nor encouraged. aiden refused to accept that and fled to philadelphia where he started to experience the culture of urban life, not to mention the local music scene.
living in downtown philadelphia for the past 6 years, this young man is making great strides for a self taught musician. he independently released his debut album “have you ever” in july 2006, exploring themes of love, heartbreak, and personal struggle. audiences took notice, and so did club owners.
now with an impressive tour under his belt stretching from boston to san francisco, his NEW album "on the run" is set for release this summer 2008. a voice that's quietly powerful and strongly captivating, aiden james is not only finding a place in our hearts... he's on the run with them.
hey aiden - yes me too! it was fun playing together...perhaps there'll be more! good luck with recording, & stay in touch. I really enjoyed your set at WCL, & if you were any sweeter I would no longer need to make my own candy :)
