Out on his own imprint, Brashtooth Records, through Adrenaline Music Group, Aaron David Gleason is storming onto the scene with six fiercely original pop-glam compositions that are sure to leave listeners drooling for more.

The self-titled EP is Gleason’s debut release, after having performed for the last several years under the pseudonym “Gilly Leads.”  He adopted the Gilly Leads persona as a homage to his favorite British Glam acts including David Bowie, who heavily influences his music.  After kicking around opportunities with several indies and a major label under the Gilly Leads name, Gleason has decided to re-adopt his given name.  His music has developed into a more unique and personal expression, while retaining some of the hint of his past persona.  Gleason has performed in several bands, including Midnight Radio.  His music is layered, textured, complicated, yet melodic and hooky as well.  This is his first digital release, a 6 song EP.

Several times in the last year, Gleason has also written and performed with Mike Garson, an avant-garde jazz pianist who was one of Bowie’s original Spiders from Mars and played with Bowie for over 23 years.  In the upcoming months, Aaron David Gleason will be playing at several Los Angeles venues, and will expand his touring region after that.  He is looking to grow his sales organically and through word of mouth, as well as a street team campaign, and is pursuing licensing opportunities.  The song “Bright Lights” has also been used every month since September as bed music on American Airlines’ independent in-flight audio channel, the Paste Beat.  The November episode of that program also featured his song (not included in the EP) “You Belong In the Movies.”
