Aaron Rizzo is a songwriter, producer and performing artist from Rochester, NY. By early adolescence, an obsession with picking apart songs manifested itself into a slew of original projects. Rizzo rotated through genres and instruments quickly, eventually leading to proficiency as a session player and multi-instrumentalist in his early 20s.

By way of producing, engineering and gigging, Rizzo has established himself as not only a versatile side man, but a compelling solo artist. To date, Aaron has independently released three full-length solo albums titled Blck Tee Shrt (2017), Mirror Talk Blue (2021), and Anchor (2023) and has recorded/collaborated on dozens of songs by other artists. His original music has been featured on the hit television shows Shameless, Black-ish and a T-Mobile ad. Aaron also won the award for best score at the Sick N’ Wrong film festival for his original score in the film Optic Nerve.

Much of Rizzo’s influence comes not from guitar players, but drummers. As a rhythmically based player, he has drawn inspiration from the likes of Steve Jordan, Nate Smith, Carter Mclean and many others. This has afforded him a distinct perspective on his primary instrument – guitar. Historically, Aaron Rizzo has covered a fair amount of ground in his recorded music. Especially as a producer, an obsession with exploring new sounds has always been a cornerstone of his albums.

In the fall of 2022, Rizzo relocated to Atlanta, Georgia where he continues to write, record, produce and perform his original music.
