Biography

22-year-old Australian singer-songwriter AYDAN made a conscious decision at the beginning of 2019 to put his head down & spend a solid year honing his craft as a songwriter. 
 “I was just kind of building up a catalog,” he says. That 12 months of developing a unique sound for himself, through finding collaborators & sounds that made sense to him, have led AYDAN to a unique sonic palette that he feels sits in a contemporary realm between pop & RnB. 
 Despite a penchant for his toy piano & guitar as a two-year-old, his upbringing wasn’t the classic “surrounded by music” story. A backseat singalong as a kid made his usually music passive Mum & Dad’s heads turn and realise their son could sing. 
 AYDAN began singing lessons, as well as dancing alongside his older sister, before beginning to perform in public to increasingly impressive turnouts in his early teens. 
 “I would have like, 20 people, that were consistently showing up and following me around to suburban festivals and the local stuff that I was doing when I was growing up. That turned into 30, then 40 and since then, I’ve steamrolled on and they’re still with me whilst I’m selling out places like 170 Russell in Melbourne and OAF in Sydney.” 
 As well as an ever-increasing live audience, AYDAN’s also found success sharing his musical journey with his now sizeable social media following (123K Instagram, 193K YouTube). 
 “I keep building my fan base along the way. We’re going strong and I’m thankful for them every day.”
