Aaron Barker
Nashville Songwriter Hall of Famer, Aaron Barker, grew up in San Antonia playing guitar and in the 70s and early 80s he fronted a Texas southern rock band, The American Peddlers, playing clubs and military bases in Texas and the southwest. Frustrated trying to breakthrough on his own, Aaron moved to Nashville to try to sell his own songs there. With little success, he returned to San Antonio when he discovered George Strait had recorded his song, “Baby Blue,” and it rose to #1 on the Country Charts. George Strait went on to take Aaron’s “Love Without End, Amen,” “Easy Come, Easy Go” to #1 and “I’ld Like To Have That One Back” to #3, “I Can Still Make Cheyenne” to #4, and “I Know She Still Loves Me” to #5 and Aaron’s place in Nashville songwriting royalty was enshrined. Country legends like Clay Walker (“You’re Beginning To Get To Me”), Doug Supernaw (“Not Enough Hours In The Night”), Clay Walker (“You’re Beginning To Get To Me”), and Lonestar (“What About Now”) also had hits with Aaron’s songs.
