Bromsgrove's Aaron Yorke's musical career began in 1998 when he performed regular shows at Ronnie Scott's in Birmingham.

Back then, he supported acts such as Tom Robinson, Pooka and Tom Hingley.

In 2007, he won a competition for the best unplugged act in the Midlands and went on to play alongside Leona Lewis, McFly and Scouting For Girls.

He also appeared on 大象传媒 Children In Need with David Gray, Annie Lennox and Kylie Minogue.

Fast forward to today and Aaron's just been played nationally on the Best Of 大象传媒 Introducing - and we were honoured to have him play on our stage at Lakefest.

  • How do I build a fanbase?

  • What's the best way to sell your music?

The guest panel included: Martin Chambers (The Pretenders), Verden Allen (Mott The Hoople), Nigel Clark (Dodgy), Tom Oliver (Tour Manager), Ella听Nozworthy (Nozstock), Brian Marr (The Marr's Bar), Steve Hadley (Death Or Glory Records) and听Scott Garrett (MAS Records).
