Award-winning songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Aaron Davis lives in the eclectic realm of Americana. His influences are diverse as his use of alternate tunings—mixing finger-style, strumming and gritty slide guitar styles to express his lyrical roots through folk, rock, country and blues.
Living in the shadows of the Tetons in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Davis is a full-time performer playing over 170 shows a year. Combining local residencies with national tours through the Southeast, Rocky Mountains, and West Coast has enabled the Kentucky native to thrive in multiple projects—as a solo artist, his acoustic duo Screen Door Porch with Seadar Rose, soul-funk sextet Global Review, and with his rockin’ quartet, Aaron Davis & The Docks.
Past performances include supporting opportunities and concert bills with Willie Nelson, Wilco, Yonder Mountain String Band, Medeski Martin & Wood, Brian Wilson, James McMurtry, Grace Potter & The Nocturnals, Kaki King, Reckless Kelly, Ben Winship, Blue Turtle Seduction, Mickey and the Motorcars, The Woodbox Gang, Benyaro, Isaac Hayden, and Anne & Pete Sibley.
Aaron’s new independent release, Rear View Mirror, contains twelve original songs that were tracked in his home studio. Self-produced and engineered, Aaron contributed vocals, acoustic and electric guitar, slide, harmonica, mandolin, percussion, pedal steel guitar, bass guitar, jaw harp, and washboard.
Compiled by 3rd Coast Music Magazine, Rear View Mirror charted at #16 on the Freeform American Roots Chart alongside Bob Dylan, Old Crow Medicine Show and Mary Chapin Carpenter, and was recognized by Susa Onda Radio in Italy as their Album of the Month.
Rear View Mirror’s lead track, "1937," about life during the New Deal in Jackson Hole, received runner up honors at the 2008 Dreams Acres Music Festival Singer-Songwriter Contest in North Carolina. Alongside Jack Johnson and Brett Dennen, Aaron also had one of his songs selected for the television series Road Trip Nation, which was featured online at MSN.com.
