About Aaron Berg:

Born in South Carolina in 1984 to mom and pop owners of one of the oldest independent record stores in the Southeast, Aaron grew up largely under a record bin and was playing in nightclubs and bars by fourteen. Originally an upright bass player, Aaron left South Carolina for New York City at age seventeen. He toured and recorded with a variety of folk and blues bands before eventually moving to a basement studio in the Hispanic section of Brooklyn where he picked up guitar and began to write songs and sing in 2005. During his time in Brooklyn he fronted a four piece psychedelic folk band formed as a backing group called The Heavy Love. The band recorded one album titled 'Songs For Madame X', which has sold three printings since 2007 and is available for download at Aaron Berg - Songs for Madame X.

His affinity for traveling and singing deepened when he met and befriended the legendary bluegrass troubadour Peter Rowan, who was lead singer for five years in the 1960's for American music icon Bill Monroe as well as contemporary musical counterpart for artists such as Tony Rice, Jerry Garcia, and Sam Bush. Before departing for the road himself he joined Rowan on bass at The Windgap Folk Festival in Pennsylvania as the headlining act and performed in front of thousands. During this time he also met Chris Hillman of The Byrds, a temporary member of the of band's dynamic lineup.

In the last half of 2007, Berg traveled over 15,000 on the road from the coast of North Carolina to California's Pacific and back to the very same beach four months later. In 2008, Aaron returned to his native South Carolina where he began to record in a two-room garage apartment in his hometown of Greenville located just across the border from Asheville, NC. The resulting tracks combined with live road tapes, rap remixes, and the occasional thread-bare hotel demo make up the monthly podcast 'Love & Coffee' which is distributed as mp3s by email. To receive Aaron's podcast which is free download the 14 collection on the widget above or join the email list below to receive future editions! Berg’s live performances are not to be missed blending bizarre tales of the road with comedic grenades and mysterious one-liners. Critics from New York to Nashville have described the live show as “riveting and uplifting from one hypnotic twist to the next...” and “...another Dylan on the cusp of something else very big.” Volume Two of ‘Love and Coffee Tapes’ is due out in March and will be gathered from a series of live one night sessions with Southern bandmates and friends. Berg’s second full length studio album titled ‘River Taxi Man’ will be released in the Winter of 2010. Aaron will also be recording a brand new cd/lp in Chicago for Tight Ship Records this November 2009 due to be released soon after!

"Berg resides in New York but is originally from Greenville, making this release one of the finest folk-rock albums ever made by an Upstate musician. Only 22 years old, Berg sounds like a sage with a deep-throated vocal style that at various turns recalls Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen and Robyn Hitchcock. Hardly a typical singer-songwriter release, "Songs For Madame X" is full of lush musical arrangements and diverse instrumentation that makes it clear that Berg is a serious artist with unlimited potential."

Greetings Aaron, paying you a visit to invite you and your friends over for a visit and a pre-release listen to the songs Love And Money and Mammon from the new Telegraph album. You might also enjoy the video for Country Music, although for a few viewers, it might get you, as the song puts it “all riled up”. We’d also love to make some new myspace friends….
