About the Artist
Wednesday, June 15th 10pm
AARON ROCHE is a composer, performer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and recording engineer. His music effortlessly and unassumingly weaves together threads of songcraft, contemporary composition, American folk traditions, lo-fi drone, and avant garde noise rock, all filtered through Aaron’s highly original vision that is both sweepingly ambitious and refreshingly unpretentious.
At National Sawdust, Aaron is presenting work from a new album entitled Haha Huhu which deals with the concepts of mental illness, loss, and their troublesome corollaries to western economies.
