An underground, nostalgic traditional country artist.
Aaron McDonnell has a sound you remember but have never heard before. Over the past several years, he has established himself as one of the premier alt-country acts in Texas having multiple top 40 hits, and playing over 1000 shows. He was selected as one of the 15 rising artists to watch in 2018 by Wide Open Country and his critically acclaimed LP "Too Many Days Like Saturday Night" in 2022. He continues to push the boundaries of country music and explore new avenues without any genre in mind at all. “ Imagine a country music universe built around the moody experience of Dwight Yoakam’s song “1000 Miles From Nowhere,” or the dour music of 90’s Chris Issak. Then infuse it with just enough 80’s-inspired New Wave goth to make it even more unique and nostalgic. This is the world where the songs of Too Many Days Like Saturday Night reside, and it’s as transportive as it is entertaining.” - Saving Country Music “In the crowded Texas country field, McDonnell stands out as one of the most natural talents to rise out of Austin in years.” – Peter Blackstock, Austin-American Statesman / Co-founder - No Depression
