ARI HEST

Like many a young songwriting musician before him, Ari Hest grew up shy and introverted, but discovered in music a means to communicate with the world at large. On Someone To Tell, Ari's combination of heart, soul, strong sense of melody, and a gimmick-free approach to classic pop songcraft, has resulted in an album that promises great times, and delivers great tunes, for once and future fans of this 21st century troubadour.

Over the past half decade, Ari's been building his fan-base through a savvy combination of old-school essentials: hook-filled, classically structured pop-rock songs, charismatic presence, natural talent, musical chops and determination, and a blue-collar work ethic that has kept him touring the country constantly for the past three years. New-school innovations, including well-designed internet promotional tools, encouragement of live show tape-trading and sharing, and the development of a promotional street team called the "A-Team", have also helped spread his music to a devoted legion of fans.

Born in the Bronx, Ari Hest grew up in a musical family: his father, a college music professor, is fluid on a variety of horns and wrote "jingles" when he was Ari's age; Ari's mother is a professional singer. As a child, Ari took piano lessons, even though he preferred the world of sports (particularly baseball, which he played through high school). At the age of 16, he was introduced to The Beatles and first picked up his mother's nylon string guitar. "I started by learning to play all the Beatles' songs by ear, which was a helpful place to start," he recalls. "If it hadn't been for that kind of chord complexity, I don't think I'd be trying to incorporate all these variations on the basics in my own music."
