It's truly wonderful!įor the last 20 years Paul has been one of Florida’s best, and most elusive, singer-songwriters. From Aaron’s classically influenced composition “Hi Mom” to their upbeat interpretation of old-time classics, you’ll hear three highly interactive, sensitive musicians, combined to make something truly greater than the sum of its parts. The Trio, featuring Irish fiddle virtuoso Katie Geringer and jazz/folk bass maestro Erik Alvar, has developed a repertoire just as diverse as the musicians themselves. Aaron is currently the reigning National Mountain Dulcimer Champion. After becoming one of the headlining names at many dulcimer festivals around the country including the Stephen Foster Dulcimer Retreat, Dulcimer Week at Davis and Elkins College, Key West Dulcimer Festival, Kentucky Music Week, Colorado Dulcimer Festival, and many others, Aaron logically took his music beyond dulcimer gatherings to major folk/rock festivals and other audiences outside of the dulcimer community. At the age of 26, Aaron’s unique approach to the mountain dulcimer has made an impact being a major influence to many up and coming dulcimer players all over the country as well as changing perceptions of how the instrument fits into the fast paced world of bluegrass pyrotechnics. After being on hiatus, the newly re-formed trio featuring National Mountain Dulcimer Champion, Aaron O’Rourke, now includes the unique lyrical fiddle style of Katie Geringer along with the awe-inspiring bass skills of Erik Alvar. The Aaron O’Rourke Trio is that rare group that pulls off original compositions that stretch the limits of their instruments and at the same time pay tribute to authentic traditional music.
