Robert Aaron’s music, with its range of saxophones and keyboards (piano, Hammond organ, Wurlitzer), has a unique style that is hard to find in this age of mathematical solos. It perpetuates the lyricism of Gato Barbieri (his parents are from Argentina) or Stanly Turrentine, with the intense breath of Pharaoh Sanders. Robert left his hometown of Montreal and arrived in New York in 1976. He quickly became a regular on the New York No Wave scene and was part of the original line-up of James Chance and the Contortions. He was spotted by David Bowie and recorded the ‘Let’s Dance’ album with him. Robert played his many instruments and recorded with rock bands such as the B52s and Blondie, funk and disco bands like Chic, and for the producer Patrick Adams.
