Genre-defying artist lil aaron has given fans an early gift with the surprise drop of Worst Christmas Ever today. The 5-track EP was produced by Travis Barker (Blink-182) in his LA studio and brings a new twist to the holiday music catalogue with completely original tracks. On how the surprise project came to be, Aaron shares “I’ve had the idea of doing a funny Christmas album for a while. I just brought it up to Travis in the studio one day and he was down. It only took a few days for us to knock the whole thing out.”
This is the pair’s second project together, Travis being featured on the lead single from lil aaron’s latest EP ROCK$TAR FAMOU$. Shortly after the release, Aaron was invited to open for Blink-182 at their Palms Las Vegas residency. On working with Travis, Aaron continues to share that “Working with Travis is the easiest thing in the world. He just keep the ideas going at all times.” Worst Christmas Ever is available today via HAZHEART Records and is streaming now at https://lilaaron.lnk.to/worstchristmaseverPR.

ROCK$TAR FAMOU$,which dropped earlier this year via HAZHEART Records is truly a realization of everything lil aaron wants to accomplish with music. The 7-track EP blurs the lines between rock, hip-hop, emo and pop genres, welcoming artists like Travis Barker (Blink-182), Kim Petras, Rico Nasty and KIIARA. “I want to mesh everything that I grew up listening to with everything I listen to today” shares the artist that somehow can fit in an underground rap show just as well as he fits on the Emo Nite stage.

Aaron not only delivers a unique sound in a sometimes other-wise formulaic music scene, but also embraces his own grunge-goth style with 100% confidence. He blends the internet music discovery scene with a mainstream audience while collaborating with artists and creators from vastly different genres. Transitioning from a songwriter to performer, lil aaron’s first EP, GLOING PAIN$ was released in 2016 and he has shared the stage with artists like Blackbear, Kim Petras, smrtdeath and more.
