Aaron Williams and the Hoodoo
Aaron Williams and the Hoodoo is an American blues/rock power trio, based in Madison, WI. Led by Aaron Williams (b. 1983 or 1984〔(AV Club, November 29, 2010 )〕) on guitar, the band’s sound is likely best described by “Ole Harv” of ( WVPE 88.1 ) (NPR) as “blues and roll for the masses.” Aaron is joined in the band by Eric Shackelford on drums and Z on bass. 365Ink says, “Compared to early George Thorogood, Williams & The Hoodoo have all the fire and swagger of the slide guitarist in his younger days, but with more finesse and way more versatility.” 〔''365Ink'', May 2010〕 Pulse magazine adds, “A little classic, dirty blues, a little Black Crowes on speed and a little rockabilly. Our Pulse Pick of the week!” 〔''Pulse'' Magazine, November 5, 2010〕
==Career==
Aaron began his musical career at 17 years old as the lead guitarist for the Cadillac Joe Band. As part of this group, Aaron enjoyed the pleasure of opening for such renowned artists as Coco Montoya, Taj Mahal, Leon Russell, Canned Heat, Carey Bell, and Jimmy Thackery, who promptly dubbed Aaron “The Brat with the Strat” because of his prowess with guitar and his affinity for Fender guitars. Eric Shackelford has played drums since the age of 11. Majoring in music and religion in college, Eric held the position of drum chair with the Iowa All-Star Jazz Band and had the pleasure of sharing the stage with jazz great Ignacio Berroa. Eric has pushed himself to play all styles of music, including adding New Orleans funk to his style, making him a great addition to a blues rock power trio like Aaron Williams and the Hoodoo.〔Madison Music Foundry - Instructors〕 Z has been playing bass for 12 years. Immediately prior to joining the Hoodoo, Z studied and performed classical guitar. Z’s various disciplines allow him to add yet another element to the blues/rock sound of Aaron Williams and the Hoodoo.
The band’s first full-length CD “It Ain’t Easy” was named Blues/Rock Album of the Year by Real Blues magazine.〔Real Blues magazine, December 2009〕 For the first time in the band’s short history, they were nominated for six Madison Area Music Awards and took home five, including the highly coveted Artist of the Year.〔Thomas, Rob, Top MAMAs honor puts Williams on hot list, ''The Isthmus'', May 18, 2010〕 2010 marked the first year that a panel of music experts cast the deciding vote and the first time Artist of the Year was awarded to a blues-based band. The band won Blues Artist of the Year in 2011. They were also twice-nominated for Blues Artist of the Year by the Wisconsin Area Music Industry.〔Rytlewski, Evan, Express Milwaukee.com, February 19, 2010〕〔Rytlewski, Evan, Express Milwaukee.com, March 7, 2011〕 Aaron was honored in 2011 by an appearance in Madison magazine 〔''Madison'' magazine, April 2011〕 and the cover of Americana Gazette.〔''Americana Gazette'', February/March 2011〕
