26 SEPTEMBER 2025 (TORONTO, ON) — Today, aron! teams up with another virtuosic rising talent, Joe la panic, for the new single “deja vu.” There is a natural chemistry to this collaboration — with aron!, a multi-hyphenate talent from the US bringing jazz and pop influences, and the rising French singer Joe La Panic offering her blend of traditional French chanson and pop. The result is the dreamy “deja vu,” an infectious new song sung in both English and French. Listen to aron!’s “deja vu” featuring Joe la panic, here.
Earlier this year, aron! shared his debut EP cozy you (and other nice songs). The EP is an intimate six-track introduction to aron!’s world of cozy music, providing the perfect soundtrack to fall weather, pumpkin spice lattes, and cardigan season. Listen to cozy you (and other nice songs), here, watch the lyric video for “eggs in the morning” here, and the previously released official video for “table for two,” here.
aron! has amassed millions of streams and built a loyal, dedicated following as he gears up to make his Verve Records debut. This EP is all about how everyone wants to get “cozy” sometimes — “My songs are little vignettes from my life,” he observes. “To me, ‘cozy’ is the perfect word for the vibe of this project. Hopefully, you’ll think so too!"
ABOUT ARON!
Born and raised in Charlotte, NC, aron!’s mom and dad introduced him to rock icons like Pearl Jam and Led Zeppelin, but it was the game Guitar Hero that first made him pick up a real guitar at eight-years-old and enroll in lessons at a local music school. He eventually met an “80-year-old jazz guitar teacher at Sam Ash.” The instructor taught aron! how to read music and further inspired his passion for jazz. Maybe it was the pre-teen rebellion inside that pushed him from rock and into jazz. In high school, he also regularly played music for the residents of retirement homes, performing old classics from Nat King Cole and Frank Sinatra for dementia patients. “I'd put on my little bow tie and a dress shirt to make it official,” he laughs.
aron! studied classical composition at University of North Carolina School of the Arts, developing an appreciation for Chopin, Ravel, and Bach. During COVID, he dedicated himself to learning piano, waking up at 7:30am daily and exploring all that you can do with 88 keys. He earned a full scholarship to the University of Miami and majored in jazz voice and film scoring. Simultaneously, he cut his teeth live by playing dozens of shows in his indie pop band Sunny Side Up!.
In 2023, he explored what he calls “a vintage pop sound,” and started building a strong following online. Labels started to call, and he signed to Verve to further develop his brand of ‘cozy pop’ on this new EP. “It's like singer-songwriter jazz,” he goes on. “I've always resonated with the real old-school romantics. People are going through the same things now as they were back then. Heartbreak is heartbreak, and love is love. We’re all humans, and that’s what most of these songs are about.”
Once you get to know aron!, you won’t forget him.

ABOUT JOE LA PANIC
Joe la panic is, above all, Joe panicking. One capital letter, pockets full of dreams for the French female artist with a cowboy name. She is also a voice of her time, both universal and warm, as she manages to come across as intimate. A friend full of derision with whom we talk about therapy and whom we have surely discovered on social media with her song snippets. After releasing her EP ‘tendresse’ at the end of 2024, the woman who will be one of the outsiders of 2026 is preparing her vision of uninhibited pop and French chanson inspired by jazz.
