Aaron Keylock
Medicine Man
Released 15th December, 2014
Hot from supporting Atlanta Georgia’s finest Blackberry Smoke on their sold out UK tour earlier this month, where he played to packed houses of new fans,16 year old blues guitar genius Aaron Keylock will release Medicine Man as a free download on 15th December.
Here is what people are saying about him:
“What is absolutely beyond discussion is this: now 16 and a “veteran” of 300 shows, Keylock is so full of potential it’s frightening how good he could be.” - Maximum Volume Music
“Sauntering on stage with a swagger and cockiness, he, his drummer and his bass player launched into a half hour set that had the growing crowd more than impressed. In his purple corduroy trousers, with a body built like the gable end of a Rizla, face hidden under long hair and guitar slung low, he bore more than a passing resemblance to a young Jimmy Page. And when I say young I mean YOUNG. Keylock is an incredibly talented songwriter, singer and guitarist and is doing all this at the age of sixteen. Yep, you read that right. Sixteen. The guitar solo in ‘Just One Second’ is of a standard people who’ve been playing a lot longer than he’s been living can only aspire to.” - Planet Mosh Review
“Aaron Keylock has built a solid reputation on the strength of his live performances thus far. Still just sixteen years old the American influenced blues guitar prodigy gives the impression of having been born forty years too late with his long hair and bell bottomed flares. Firecracker solos are his stock in trade and time is very much on his side.” - Midlands Rock Review

Whilst referencing Johnny Winter, Gallagher, The Faces, The White Stripes and Blackfoot, Aaron writes all his own songs. Sporting clothes and hair straight out of 1974 (“I just like them”), Aaron references his heroes in a shockingly authentic yet millennial way. He explains, “It’s the music I grew up with, its what I like, and I'm young.”
