Dear Friends and Fans,
A short email to share some wonderful news.
I am very pleased to announce that I have received the Médaille D'Etain (Pewter Metal) in recognition for my musical life with an award from the Socièté Académique ARTS–SCIENCES–LETTRES of Paris, France!
It is a wonderful honor from a society with over 100 years of history. Celebrate! A gigantic thank you to those near and far for your continued support. I have written a brief blog post about the award and society. Click to read. http://alcguitar.com/blog/aslaward/
Musically,
Aaron
