AARON was part of a musical family, educated in Queensland, but soon his career quickly became national. Moving to Sydney in 1999, he became an in-demand sideman and recording artist, before forming his own quintet as a well as a 13 piece jazz orchestra, with live performances and album recordings. Later he joined the RAAF band, relocating to Melbourne and appearing regularly with John's quintet as a guest. He's recently returned from Canberra and JMQ is delighted he is back.
