[TR24][OF] Aaron Keylock - Cut Against The Grain - 2017 (Blues-Rock)

Born in Oxford, UK, teenage guitar sensation Aaron Keylock releases his debut album, „Cut Against The Grain.“ While most kids were playing with toys, he was already stringing his Les Paul and developing his song writing and guitar licks. By the age of 11 he was rocking the clubs in Oxford.
The young gunslinger headed to LA to record his debut album with producer Fabrizio Grossi who has previously worked with Alice Cooper, Slash, Steve Vai and Zakk Wylde. „Cut Against The Grain“ is a strong statement of where Aaron is now a teenager who has been rocking hard his whole life!
He has already been highly touted as one of the UKs hottest acts to watch out for. Kerrang! declared him the “New Solo Superstar” in the 2015 Fresh Blood List. Total Guitar called him one of 2016s ‘Ones to Watch’ after seeing him at Dot to Dot saying “TG caught his set and we walked away with our brain thoroughly melted”. Classic Rock included him in the Sounds of and Class of 2015 and have called him “blistering” and a “precocious talent”.
The young gunslinger headed to LA to record Cut Against The Grain with producer Fabrizio Grossi who has previously worked with Alice Cooper, Dave Navarro, Slash, Ice-T and Zakk Wylde. The album highlights a prodigious young British rock talent completely at one with his guitar, blasting out his songs with a raw and powerful attitude.
"I guess what I've always loved about Rock 'n' Roll", Keylock has commented, "is that you're free to express yourself in many ways and to use many guitar techniques to convey different emotions". The freedom and variety – of technique, vibe and emotion – are evident throughout an album that is a striking and powerful debut.
If you’ve ever been a fan of blues-influenced rock from the likes of Kings Of Leon, Jack White, The Black Crowes or Lynyrd Skynyrd, then you’ll appreciate the impressively talented Aaron Keylock. With guitar-playing skills to die for, the looks of a young Jimmy Page and a growing reputation as a dynamic musician and gifted songwriter that’s sweeping like wildfire through the live circuit, it’s all the more remarkable when you discover he’s aged just 16. This feels like someone who’ll be racking up record sales and selling out gigs for several decades to come. This free download sets things up nicely for what promises to be a stunning debut album towards the back end of next year. We know of several labels sniffing around him and expect he’ll be one of the hottest word-of-mouth festival attractions next summer too. His first headline London gig is promised for sometime in January. All hail, your favourite new guitar hero.
