Interview with Aaron Pritchett

Canadian Country artist Aaron Pritchett has proven himself to be one of the hardest working and sought after artists in the business. With numerous hits, music videos, tours with Alan Jackson, Toby Keith and Brooks & Dunn, Aaron has gained a significant following across Canada. He won a CCMA for Independent Male Artist of the Year and Songwriter of the Year in 2007 for the anthem Hold My Beer. His 5th album entitledIn The Driver's Seattouches on more serious themes with songs like Coming Clean and She’s Goin’ Somewhere, but also features Aaron's high energy, rock & roll side in songs like Pinch and Light It Up. Growing up in Northern BC, Aaron drew his earliest musical influences from 80's Rock, but the transition to Country Music came naturally: "It was based on being able to relate to the stories that Country songs told. Those stories were a lot like mine. I was going fishing, camping, and riding buses to hockey tournaments in even smaller towns than my own. Life was a lot more Country than rock & roll. That down-home feeling that resonated with me is what I strive to convey in my music today."
