Trampoline

Aaron Wright sings and writes songs, but he is no run-of-the-mill singer-songwriter. There is an adroitness here, a pop lightness of touch, that elevates him beyond the usual folk troubadour fare. He was born to a Canadian mother and Scottish father, and developed an early love for quintessentially American folk (Neil Young) and classic British pop (John Lennon's Beatles demos). Aaron moved from Canada to Edinburgh as a child, pausing only to run away to London, aged 15, to see a Simon and Garfunkel concert. He later dropped out of university, intent on throwing himself into music, and seemingly unable to function without it (he still doesn't have a bank account, for instance).

Thankfully, Aaron was spotted two years ago by a new Glasgow-based label, DSet, who promptly signed him. They helped him record an album that feels inspired by early-70s Paul McCartney, Harry Nilsson or Ronnie Lane, together with the classic British and American greats on which he was raised.
