Joel
Aaron is a multi talented drummer, arranger, producer and
writer. Having done recording sessions for Lauryn
Hill,
Deluxe, Ars Nova, Joyride and many others, Joel brings
a wealth of knowledge to the musical "round table."
Joel started drumming at the age of 10 and has studied
extensively with Jay Bruno and Philly
Joe Jones, among
others. He attended the High School for the Creative and
Performing Arts and thereafter, attended Temple and Berklee
music schools. Joel started playing in and around the Philly
area after college in the late 1980's and quickly became
recognized as one of the go to drummers who had a great
groove pocket and excellent feel.
During the 90's Joel traveled and toured with some great
bands ranging from Ars Nova to Joyride. After years on
the road and endless spot dates with various acts, he's
found a perfect niche in the studios across the East Coast
utilizing his excellent "feel" for some great
artists who are both locally and nationally known.
Most recently he has been called upon to record for Larry
Gold from Philadelphia who is best known for his work with
The Roots, Jill Scott, John
Legend and Kelly Clarkson,
to name a few. Joel can be seen playing throughout the
Tri State area and into New York, most recently with a
great new band called Mama Winslow. Their first CD is out
now and there are lots of live shows coming to a venue
near you!!!
