For over twenty years, Aaron K. Hamilton has distinguished himself as a musician, songwriter, educator and producer. Aaron is rooted in the fundamentals of jazz, blues, gospel and classical music. Here he explains how his early years influenced his musical development. |
|
"I was born in Mississippi and was introduced to music through the church. My mother's boyfriend actually played guitar and he introduced me to playing the blues by ear. I made the musical connection between blues and spirituals, but it took me a while to understand the difference between sacred and secular music. At 11 I moved to the San Francisco Bay Area. That was my breeding ground to meet great educators as well as great musicians who really molded me into the studious artist I am today." |
In 1993 Aaron moved to New York where he studied at both the Manhattan School of Music and Mannes School of Music, eventually receiving his BFA from Mannes School of Music on a full scholarship. His resume includes artists as diverse as Joe Chambers, Jaki Byard, legendary ska drummer Winston Grennen, Papa Jube, and Joe Esquire. AaronĄ¯s versatility has allowed him to create innovative contemporary music. He has received rave audience reviews for his original compositions such as Dear JB, Life and Just For You. |
Besides his talent as a performer, Aaron is also making a considerable impact as a producer. Hamilton teamed up with Bernard Hawkins in 2003 to create HamHawk Productions (HHP). Through HHP, Aaron is able to use his performing, producing, and managerial experience to offer a wide array of services, including artist development, demo production, songwriting, and audio engineering. |
