"Aaron Earl Short: One Man Traveling Front Porch Show – a one-man band performance from a well-seasoned songwriter & storyteller, Dobro slidin’, guitar pickin’, harmonica wailin’ & stomp box stompin’ musician.
"Growing up in the Midwest, Short wrote and played rock and roll, folk, Americana, blues, country and roots, landing where he is today: a music mutt.
"Now emerging with his full solo sound he has recorded his new album, Watchlist. This is Short’s latest collections of personal politically charged songs to be released spring 2017 followed by an album release tour through the summer.
"Performing live is a committed passion that not everyone has the road weary troubadour nature to pursue, but for Short, it is a great fit. Performing live and entertaining audiences is what he is built for. With a large repertoire of cover songs and very relatable likable solo material, he is able to keep his dream of performing alive and well.
"There's a worn and weathered honesty to Aaron Earl Short's pistol-whip songwriting and self-inflicted humor he's developed on stage over the past 20 years. To get to know Short and his music is to get to know a true song man.
"'Aaron's songs are seasoned with hymns that call on the Greg Brown school of Midwestern roots music.' - Todd Partridge, Old School Records
"With the songwriting style of Kris Kristofferson and the musical energy of John Hiatt, he continues to engage and grow audiences of all styles. Through the years of performing, Short has adapted his material to fit into a variety of festivals, venues, bars, coffee shops and street corners."
