Aaron Simmons: A high-energy, emotional storyteller with Minnesota roots
“Big man. Bigger heart. Hailing from Stewartville, a small town in southeast Minnesota, Aaron Simmons is best known for his unique combination of high-energy stage presence and vulnerable songwriting. Nobody has more fun on stage, yet nobody is more in touch with the emotion his music conveys about love, loss, family, community, and chasing dreams.
Country music is storytelling, and that is what he does best.
Simmons released his debut album, "Third St SW," independently in 2020. The record peaked at #5 on the iTunes Country Albums Chart. After a few singles in 2021/2022 (including "78150" and "Nobody's Home in Wadena"), Simmons released his second independent album, "Center Avenue," in the summer of 2023.
Simmons was nominated for Male Vocalist of the Year in the Midwest Country Music Organization in 2022, New Artist of the Year in 2021, and his single “Nobody’s Home in Wadena” was nominated for Song and Music Video of the Year in 2022, as well as held the #1 position on Spotify's Local Pulse: Minneapolis chart for two consecutive weeks in August 2022.
He has lived in Nashville since 2021 and is influenced by Chris Stapleton, Caitlyn Smith, Brothers Osborne and Tenille Townes.”
