Aaron Waldman Biography
Maine-native Aaron Waldman rose out of the Brooklyn underground via Frands, the theatrical funk-punk band he fronted and co-founded with lead guitarist James Beer in 2018. Despite their nearly complete lack of releases (a single live session on YouTube) the group amassed a sizable cult following in NYC, headlining Rough Trade and Mercury Lounge before disbanding just 10 months after their formation.
In the aftermath of the band’s breakup Waldman refocused on his solo compositions, blending Indie-Rock, Psychedelia, and dynamic stage antics in a style reminiscent of Big Thief, Nick Cave, and The War On Drugs. An east coast tour playing keys for Jonny G as the support for Noah Gundersen earned Waldman a fan base outside of NYC, and allowed him to complement his 2020 residency at the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn with house concerts and DIY shows from Florida to Boston.
Waldman released the James Beer and Alex Fulton produced single “Americana Beauty” and the self-recorded B-Side “Hospice (Acoustic)” in December 2019.
