Since the beginning of his career, ARIES has been mixing modern hip-hop with alternative influences, creating a sound that has garnered worldwide attention. On his debut album "WELCOME HOME," songs like "BAD NEWS," "SAYONARA," "RACECAR," and "CAROUSEL" quickly became fan favorites, impressing listeners with a dynamic and vibrant mix of various musical worlds. This genre fusion has been steadily expanded and refined by ARIES over two additional albums. In mid-November, he released his brand-new album "GLASS JAW," which will bring the 27-year-old American musician to Germany in 2026 as part of a world tour. On his GLASS JAW WORLD TOUR, ARIES will perform in Munich, Berlin, Hamburg, and Cologne in April 2026, showcasing his unique alternative sound.
Arshia Fattahi (ARIES) was born in Wichita, Kansas, to Iranian parents and was musically influenced early on by his father, a professional violinist. When he was eight, his family moved to Los Angeles, where he has since made his home. At the age of 13, he began rapping and taught himself how to produce beats. Influenced by the crossover sound of Linkin Park, he quickly developed the idea of mixing hip-hop with alternative rock. ARIES first gained attention through his YouTube channel, where he built a following by recreating popular beats and explaining production techniques. Starting in 2019, he released his own music and debuted with his album "WELCOME HOME," which showcased his sound for the first time in full length, blending catchy guitar loops, modern hip-hop beats, pop vocals, rap, and alternative vibes. In 2021, he followed up with the album "BELIEVE IN ME, WHO BELIEVES IN YOU," which includes two more fan favorites, "FOOL’S GOLD" and "ONE PUNCH," and further developed his sound. "ONE PUNCH" also became part of the NBA 2K22 soundtrack and was used in several ESPN sports broadcasts. With his current work "GLASS JAW," ARIES has once again evolved his sound. On the album, tracks like "SLEEPWALKER" feat. brakence, "IN THE FLESH," and "ANESTHESIA" emerge as the next top tracks from ARIES, who turns to rock influences stronger than ever and reveals pop-punk elements ("WICHITA BLUES").
