Aaron Nordstrom is a singer, multi-instrumentalist, and producer based in the American Southwest. A lifelong student of music, he sees creative expression as both vocation and spiritual practice—a way to translate human experience into sound and meaning.

His journey has taken many forms, from performing with Otep to co-founding Gemini Syndrome and Woyote, his solo project Manakin Music, and now producing and engineering for other artists. Across each chapter, Aaron remains dedicated to making music with those who share a sense of purpose and heart.

Beyond music, his work is informed by a deep interest in philosophy and Chinese martial arts—disciplines that shape his approach to balance, focus, and inner alchemy. These influences echo through his process, where reflection and transformation meet craft and sound.
