Hello and welcome! For those that don't already know my name is Aaron Douglas and i'm a Singer-Songwriter. This blog will keep you up to date with things that are going on in my musical world.
If you're reading this on the website then you can ignore this bit but if this is something you've just stumbled across then feel free to go to my website (www.AaronDouglasMusic.co.uk) for a little bit of my history.
So the last 6/7 months have been fairly bonkers. I moved from Plymouth to Bristol last July and since then things have been mad. This first blog hopefully will bring you up to speed with what's been happening. It all started with the release of my first solo EP "Weapons Free".

I was lucky enough to play on the Acoustic cafe stage during the show and as a result came home with some great endorsements as well as meeting a lot of cool people. As it stands i'm currently endorsed by Elixir, Logarythm, Diago, Protection Racket, and Bare Knuckle Pickups. I'm a big fan of all these companies so i'm truly honoured that they are happy to be associated with me! :-)
Also I should also mention the manufacturer of my guitar, Lakewood. They've been awesome supporting me over the last few months so massive props to them and also for making such a sweet guitar!
In other news i've been putting a band together with Garry Kroll and Harry Harding. Splendid fellows and awesome musicians to boot. I'm very much looking forward to some shows as rehearsals are sounding spiffing if I do say so myself. :-)
To end last year off I did an interview for the January issue of Acoustic Magazine.
Not going to lie, it's pretty surreal seeing yourself in a magazine. Not that i'm complaining. For reasons I won't go into most of 2011 and all of 2010 were rubbish. So to end last year on such a high was amazing. There's a lot of other stuff in the pipeline which i'll anounce as they're confirmed (don't want to jinx them!).
Finally, i've gotten myself into a band in Bristol called Beyond Rivers. They've got some ruddy good songs so i'm pleased as punch that they don't seem to mind me hitting drums all over them. Check it out.
And so endeth the first blog. Ummm....so....how did I do? Sorry it's not been more than a few statements of fact but now the first one is out the way hopefully these will get better......and funnier..........and better looking.......
Laters
Aaron
