With a bunch of late summer releases it’s easy to over look emerging artists that lack big promo budgets. With that, look out for 20-year-old singer-songwriter Aaron Carpenter. The Louisiana native released a new single Next via Capitol Records. He wrote the song with The Roommates (Jon Bellion) and Mozella (Miley Cyrus, Jonas Brothers, One Direction). His first release Attitude has clocked over a million Spotify streams and BBC Radio 1 named it as one of the April’s Best New Pop tracks. Managed by Lighthouse Management + Media, Aaron got a boost through instagram where he has a million followers – probably a huge factor in his signing with Capitol. In interview with Paper, Carpenter says, “I didn’t take it seriously until I was about 15, 16. I love entertaining people in any way possible, and I have an insane passion with music. I didn’t know how to go about doing it—I could play instruments and I could sing, but I didn’t know how to go about it. My platform came along and it’s like, “Oh, might as well start doing what I like instead of just posting photos of myself online.” It’s a blessing.”
