Wreckage From The Fire

by Aaron Skiles

about

Wreckage From The Fire is Aaron Skiles' new solo album. It features songs co-written by Matt Patton (Drive-By Truckers) who also plays bass on the album. In addition to Patton, Jay Gonzales of DBT plays piano/keys, Taylor Hollingsworth (Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band) plays lead guitar, A.J. Haynes (Seratones) provides backing vocals and Bronson Tew plays drums.

Wreckage From The Fire is clearly different in tone and mood from the music Skiles made with Bourbon Therapy. “This album is all me—and it’s rough around the edges, a bit raw and definitely hard hitting. Lyrically this album is more introspective and written almost entirely in the first-person, whereas BT music often tells stories of others. Music to me is a way to explain your place in the world, how you see things as they are, and how you wish they’d be. My goal is to write a song that tells the listener something of significance, whether through the lyrics or the instrumentation—or ideally both. I write songs that are meaningful to me and that I’d like to listen to. If someone else enjoys them as well, then that’s just gravy on the top as far as I’m concerned.”

Aaron Skiles creates music for the good times...and the bad.

In 2023, Aaron released, WHISTLE PAST THE GRAVE. It’s a fast-paced tour of introspective songs taking on themes of justice, or the lack thereof. Jon Worley, of Aiding & Abetting, says about the record, "Skiles is one hell of a songwriter, and he's just as skilled and charismatic in his recording. What a wonderful, spiky breeze." ... more
