Usually during the period before Christmas, most of us are getting in a process of considering what weve done during the last year and what we wish to do in the following one. One thing is for sure that we all have many mistakes we regret. As Aaron Short would say though, 'People Make Mistakes', but please dont make the mistake not to listen to his EP carefully, because this would be surely something that you will regret.
The 25-year-old from Suffolk created an amazing five-track ep, which without any exaggeration might be one of the best EPs from new artists that Ive heard lately. His songs sound musically perfect and on the one hand this might be because of his studies, on the other hand though, we could just say that this bloke is gifted. Any comparison with other artists would be rather pointless, as Aaron has managed to create his own identity in his music. The only person that I could say that Aarons music brought in my mind is Fran Healy and this only as far as the sense of fragility that the music has.
People Make Mistakes is the opening track of this EP and it took me several days to manage to listen to the rest of the songs. People Make Mistakes has such an engaging tune that just makes you want to listen to it over and over again. Yet after I eventually managed to press the forward button, I realised that the following tracks were equally perfect. If This Is Love ended up being my favourite song and I would love to listen to more songs with Aaron Short accompanied by the sound of a piano.
As Aaron Short would say Theres nothing left to say. He is simply amazing.
