This Month Featuring:
The AJ hirsch Band
Gas Club
AJ Hirsch is an instrumental progressive rock guitarist and solo artist from the Atlanta area, whose musical journey began at the age of 8 after being inspired by his father and older brother’s love of music.
Growing up listening to groups like The Beatles, Cream, Jimi Hendrix, and Led Zeppelin, AJ quickly became fascinated with the guitar. As his playing developed, his influences expanded to include Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Dream Theater, Yngwie Malmsteen, Vinnie Moore, and Nick Johnston, blending progressive rock,vclassical, blues, and classic rock into his own instrumental style.
AJ spent years performing in rock bands before graduating from the Atlanta Institute of Music and Media in 2014. Since then, he has continued developing his career as a solo artist, writing, recording, and performing original instrumental guitar music.
His debut album, Point Of No Return, showcases AJ’s evolution as a guitarist and songwriter, while his latest release, Ready / Fire / Aim, pushes his progressive approach even further with a six-minute-plus instrumental journey built around constantly evolving sections rather than traditional repeating song structures.
AJ’s live show features a hand-picked band of highly skilled musicians who bring his instrumental compositions to life with energy and precision. The result is an exciting live experience built for both guitar enthusiasts and anyone who enjoys powerful, dynamic live music.
Gas Club is an Atlanta-area rock band blending classic rock roots with alternative influences and a sound of their own. Bringing raw energy and a love for live music to every set, Gas Club puts its own spin on familiar favorites while building an identity beyond them.
