Paul Aitken

I'm a guitarist from London, Ontario, Canada. I play live and do studio work with a variety of area artists and bands. I also lead my own trio, which plays improvised instrumental music. In 2019 I was voted into the Forest City London Music Awards Fantasy Band as London's favourite guitarist, and won in the Jazz Instrumental Solo/Group category in 2022, having been nominated twice before. I'm a busy hired gun available for live work, recording sessions (in-person and remote), and private lessons. I have two albums of original instrumental music under my own name. You can download and stream my music at Bandcamp. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Jazz Performance and Musicology from York University, a Master's Degree in Musicology from McMaster University, and a PhD in Communications and Media Studies from the Institute for Communications Studies at the University of Leeds.
