Aaron West’s ‘Bittersweet’ Roar
The Wonder Years’ front man Dan Campbell has an alter ego and sound that you can experience live this summer. Aaron West and The Roaring Twenties brings its character study to stages across the U.S. including stops in Boston, Chicago and San Diego.

After finishing up an international tour with The Wonder Years in mid-May, Campbell takes a short break and returns as his Aaron West persona. The tour is in support of his latest release, Bittersweet, which drops May 20 via Hopeless Records.
The three song EP is the follow-up to the band’s 2014 debut, We Don’t Have Each Other, which furthers the narrative of Aaron West as he travels through the American South in the wake of a series of personal tragedies.
“This EP serves as a bridge to future full lengths. The songs place a period at the end of We Don’t Have Each Other and open up a new chapter for Aaron to start rebuilding,” Campbell said.
