Aaron Tilt (Handling booking, management, promotions)

Aaron Tilt was born & raised in San Antonio.  He grew up on the southeast side, went to high school at San Antonio Christian School, attended Palo Alto for awhile, and then became a member of the San Antonio Fire Department – where he still makes his living. His real passion however, is the music.  His earliest musical influence came at church, where Grandpa was the pastor, and Dad often led the music.  He sat between Mom & Grandma, absorbing the beautiful harmonies of the old time hymns & gospel music.  Mom and Dad’s record collection was next, his favorites being Willie & Family Live & Credence Clearwater Revival.  In his early twenties, he began playing around the area as half of the super-duo “Tilt & Bard” with locally renowned guitarist/singer/songwriter Jim Bard.  Job restraints required Aaron to put the music aside for awhile, but now he’s back with his debut solo album Bonnie Blue Skye.  The music is heavily influenced by the likes of Steve Earle, Guy Clark, & Townes Van Zandt.  He also incorporates bluegrass, Scottish & Irish folk, and a little rock-n-roll for a unique sound he’s dubbed “Browngrass” (a little like bluegrass, but it’s from a place where we’re lucky if the grass is green, much less blue).  The songwriting ranges from love-lost country to nefarious criminal exploits, to praise songs to the Lord – the giver of all good gifts. Aaron’s other musical outlet is as a bagpiper in the SA Firefighter’s pipe & Drum Brigade – check them out at parades around town.  So take a ride through the Bonnie Blue Skye

The Jackson Parten Catastrophe  (Handling booking)

Jackson Parten was born and raised in San Antonio, although he spent some time in Arkansas and New York City. Raised on a steady diet of Beatles, Cash, Stones, Earle, and Zevon, Jackson's musical style is based on a diversely formed foundation. His first album, Jackson Parten, a country record, was universally lauded by critics and spawned the Hill Country hit "Smoke 'Em If You Got 'Em." Having achieved success in the country genre, Jackson could have easily stayed there and made a comfortable living, but his muse would not hear of it! Jackson took his sound in a different direction for his second record, The Sum Of All Parts, which is decidedly pop-rockier than Jackson Parten. Since that second album, Jackson has experimented with several musical styles, but he has now put together a band that suits his current frame of mind, Jackson Parten's Catastrophe. The sound produced by The Catastrophe, which includes steel guitar and keyboard, fits Jackson's most recent songwriting, featuring such soon-to-be classics as "Companion" and "Death by Misadventure." With a new album due out in 2009, Jackson Parten is finally coming into his own. He's focused and sharp -- some who know Jackson may choose to read that as "more mature" -- and as crowd-pleasing as ever. As fun and exciting as a Jackson Parten live show is, though, real music fans will hear the beautiful melodies and stirring lyrics and know they are in the presence of a musician who must eventually, when all is said and done, be recognized as of one of Texas' great songwriters.
