Aidan Adler, a talented musician born and raised in Kansas City, began his musical journey at a young age. At just 11 years old, Aidan started playing in bars, captivating audiences with his raw talent. As he progressed through high school, his passion for music only grew stronger, founding two bands: Stop Motion, a jazz, funk fusion group, and Vice Versa, a dynamic rock ensemble. These groups, with their electrifying performances, entertained crowds in local bars and festivals across the lively Kansas City scene, even once gracing the now hollowed halls of Arrowhead stadium. Aidan's talent and knack for improvisation garnered him opportunities to learn and grow as a musician in various baptist churches, both in Kansas City and New Orleans.
During his eight years in New Orleans, Aidan immersed himself in the rich and diverse culture permeating from every cobblestone crack in the city. His passion for music and New Orleans culture led him to perform with countless groups at local festivals and venues, building lasting and meaningful relationships throughout the music scene. Aidan is proficient in a diverse range of styles with training in jazz, Spanish, and classical guitar. He’s preformed and recorded with artists such as George Brown, Sasha Salk, Jenna Hunts, Ella Blue, Deadman Medicine and The Army, The Navy. Performing regularly at some of New Orleans staple venues such as Blue Nile, BMC, The Rabbit Hole, Tollouse Theater, New Orleans Jazz Museum, Saturn Lounge, the Willow, and 30.90. Notable festivals include South by Southwest, Family Gras, and Crawfest, amongst others. Furthermore, his time working in programs and production at the New Orleans Jazz Museum helped solidify community ties and deepen his lasting love for the city’s extraordinary cultural heritage.
Since moving to New York in 2023, Aidan has continued his musical journey, cultivating a high-quality home studio and recording with artists such as ET Boys and Kunle Ulysses. He also recently released a cover of Thats How I Got to Memphis by Tom T. Hall, and an original instrumental project “From Lost to the River,” a meditative collection of musings set to nature. I strive to create impactful, emotional music the connects with audiences while, I hope, bringing a unique tone and caring spirit to every project of which I’m apart.
