Academy Member: Aaron Scherz
IT ALL STARTED WITH A LITTLE RUM…
…and a mom who raised him on good music. Jimmy Buffett, John Denver, James Taylor and others.
Aaron always knew he was going to do something “different”. But he couldn’t have imagined that “different” would involve tropical islands, sail boats, catamarans, Parrotheads, Meeting Of The Minds, Coral Reefers, and a multi-platinum Songwriting career!
His music covers a wide range of topics and has taken him all over the world. But most special to him are his songs about the laid-back lifestyle best enjoyed in a hammock underneath a palm tree with a rum in hand.
Whether you hear music on Radio Margaritaville, teaming up with John Frinzi on their song, “Summer Sun”, on stage with the Coral Reefers at MOTM performing in the Jimmy Buffett “Album Hour”, or in some Key West hideaway, his music is sure to take you away to that “one particular harbor” and get you in an island state of mind.
