Spaacis Artist Profile

Aaron Forbes

At the tender age of 10 Aaron was gifted a guitar for his Christmas present, by his dad. Having only just received a Playstation 2 for his birthday the month before, it’s safe to say that Aaron was less than impressed with this gift. Coming from a church going family, Aaron then had to play the guitar at church but didn’t feel inspired to take his playing seriously, although he had managed to pick up Rhythm guitar quite quickly.

It was at the age of 13 / 14 when things changed. Aaron & his parents went across London to another church where he heard session guitarist Wayne Plumber playing. He was mesmerised and asked his dad to speak to Wayne for some lessons. Wayne then proceeded to become Aaron’s tutor, teaching him how to play all the songs Aaron loved to listen too.

Following the lessons with Wayne, Aaron then decided that he wanted to make music his career and so went on to university to further his musical studies at the BIMM Institute. It was at BIMM where Aaron’s eyes were opened to different genres of music and guitar playing, whilst enabling him to develop his theoretical music knowledge.

Since leaving university, Aaron has gone on to play for various artists, such as: Donae, Beenie Man, MoMusic, Madison Beer, Louise Redknapp, Tamera, Jonas Blue, Calum Scott, Aitch, Steven Bartlett, Mabel, Stefflon Don, Liam Payne and many more.
