Aaron Neville

Ask Aaron Neville when he first knew that his voice was something special, and he has a ready answer. "It was the day I was born" he says with a little grin. "The doctor slapped me, and I said "Ah-aaaah!" What follows is one of those classic, tremulous Aaron Neville falsettos – it may be impossible to capture on the printed page, but you've heard it before. You heard it on his classic 1966 ballad, "Tell It Like It Is," on his acclaimed records with his brothers in the New Orleans first family of rock 'n' funk, "The Neville Brothers," on his Grammy-winning hit duets with Linda Ronstadt and Trisha Yearwood, and on his A&M Records solo albums "Warm Your Heart," "The Grand Tour" and "Aaron Neville's Soulful Christmas." 
After several acclaimed but unsuccessful albums as the Neville Brothers, and countless prayers, Aaron finally broke through in 1989: first the Neville Brothers masterful album "Yellow Moon," then Aaron's four duets with longtime fan Linda Ronstadt on her double platinum "Cry Like a Rainstorm, Howl Like The Wind," then his first solo album on A&M records, "Warm Your Heart."
Two albums, four Grammy Awards and a couple Rolling Stone magazine critics' poll victories later, Aaron remembers what it took to get him here – and so he ends each of his albums with some sort of hymn.
With every new album, Aaron Neville carries on the legacy of the greats who influenced him, and sings for the friends and relatives who didn't make it through the obstacles and the family that has stood behind him. The open, generous heart, at the core of his music is tattooed with the names, emblems, and dreams of those who came before, those who didn't make it this far, those who needed his music in the past and will need it in the future. "They've been with me almost all my life, since I was a teenager," he says of his visible tattoos, the ones that adorn his face, his arms, his body. "And they'll be there forever." So will his music.
