Join pianist Aaron Hill and stellar vocalist & orator Keith Snipes at An die Musik Live for a tribute to one of the most Iconic Voices of our times: Bill Withers!Aaron Hill is a piano artist, composer, producer, audio engineer, talk show host, educator, and entrepreneur. He was educated at Berklee School of Music and Sheffield Institute for the Recording Arts. Raised by a nurturing mother who prioritized education and self-expression, Hill showed early promise as a poet and hip hop artist, forming successful groups and releasing music in his teens. He later discovered his talent for composing original music and mastered piano with the guidance of mentor Dr. Maurice Johnson.
In 2007, he founded Fruition Music Inc., filling a void in the backing track industry, with global success that continues today. Hill's influences span genres from hip hop to jazz, shaping his unique style, showcased in his touring act "Street Serenades," as well as his "Aaron Hill Trio."
Keith Snipes is an actor, poet, vocalist, and songwriter. A native of Baltimore, Keith started acting at the age of 16, after landing a summer job that focused on the arts. Gifted with a melodious singing voice, his first two theatrical performances were both in musical productions, West Side Story and Porgy & Bess, respectively.
The first song he wrote is about his mother. He wrote it as he sat by her hospital bed, which was surrounded by liquids. The song is aptly entitled, “Bed of Water.” According to Keith, the song takes the listener from the bed of water his mother carried him in for nine months to the bed of water he prayed would bring his mother through. Bed of Water is just one of the emotionally charged soulful songs on his debut EP. It is filled with socially conscious songs and politically poignant poetry.
