Artist description
Aaron Ellis is a folk/pop singer and songwriter inspired by the diversity, frankness and sometimes hypocritical aspects of his life. When listening to his music, audiences are reminded of some of the great songwriters, from Joni Mitchell and Shawn Colvin to Dan Folgerberg and Ani Difranco. Aaron’s outstanding tenor voice supports his honest lyrics. While he has the stamina and control of a trained singer, Aaron sings with simplicity and soul.
Aaron Ellis first appeared on the music scene in the summer of 2002. Previously he led a successful career as a performer in theatre. On Broadway, Aaron understudied and performed the role of Cousin Kevin in The Who’s Tommy. He also appeared Off-Broadway and has toured the world acting, singing and dancing in theatre productions.
His move to the music business was born out of a desire to get more personal as a performer.
"I love the feeling of performing in a large Broadway show. The sets, the lights and music take you to another place as a performer. Now, performing as a singer and songwriter, I love the intimacy of playing solo and singing my own songs. At a recent performance, someone let out a chuckle because she related to a lyric. It made my night."
Born in Homestead, Florida, Aaron moved many times during the early years of his life eventually settling and growing up in Des Moines, Iowa. Now, Aaron calls Long Valley, New Jersey his home.
