‘Lee Aaron’ Browning is 17 years old and is ranked in the top 10 best young drummers in the UK.
Lee Aaron lives in Berkshire 28miles from central London and has been playing drums since the age of eight. He is influenced by many different styles of music, having been exposed to all genres from an early age. His appreciation and understanding of all types of music is inspiring, from Jazz and Blues through to funk and metal he intuitively understands what is necessary from a drummer.
Lee Aaron plays and deps in numerous bands from function bands to jazz fusion bands and for the past two years he has developed and controlled his own rock covers band, ‘The Lee Aaron Band’, which he is justifiably proud of.
He has gigged around London and the Home Counties since he was 13 and has developed a professional edge that is refreshingly unusual. He has been likened to a young Keith Moon and the speed and accuracy of his playing is recognized by the public and pro musicians alike, as awesome.
Lee Aaron has developed a following wherever he plays, not just for his playing skills but also for his youthful exuberance, warmth and off the wall comments that he has become well known for. The love for his instrument, his stage charisma and the 100% effort he always gives shines through at every performance, and is always conveyed to and given back to him by the audience.
Lee Aaron says; “Drumming to me is not just a hobby, or even a habit, but more like a way of life. This is no joke, from my earliest recollection this is all I have wanted to do for the rest of my life.”
Lee Aaron attends The Academy of Contemporary Music in Guildford and uses PDP drums, DW Hardware and Sabian cymbals. He also uses a Yamaha DT Extreme for home practice.
