Über die Veranstaltung
Aaron Skiles, known for his country-inflected rock music, is returning to Gena's Sierra Inn this summer for his latest tour. Skiles' newest album, "Whistle Past the Grave," features songs that deviate from his usual sound, with some sounding more like Social Distortion or Weezer than mellow ballads. Last year's album "A Triumph of Three Chords" features a tracklist dominated by straight-ahead rock and roll, with only a hint of Skiles' country influences. "On My Own" is a powerful, mid-tempo rocker that sounds like a confession of a life misspent, with Skiles delivering a snarling ode to self-destruction. "A Triumph of Three Chords" is a mellow groove with bluesy lead guitar and soaring harmonies, celebrating the healing power of music. The album's emotional core is "Before You Go," a ballad about a friend who committed suicide. Skiles' raw vocals and Jay Gonzalez's funereal piano chords set the tone, with Skiles questioning if there was anything he could have done to prevent his friend's tragic end. Fans of Skiles' previous work will appreciate his evolution as an artist and his willingness to experiment with new sounds on this latest release. Don't miss the chance to hear him play live at Gena's Sierra Inn this summer.
