Los Angeles musician Aaron MF Olson is a man of many bands and hats: recording as L.A. Takedown, composing for film and television (most recently, the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack for Matt Hewitt’s indie horror film, Hoagie), and now... as a true "sung" songsman! Songs Album II, out via Country Thyme Records on June 26, cruises through sunny pop sounds of yesteryear with modern-day wit woven throughout. Hear his new single "Who Do You Think You Are I Am?" today, out with a music video by Matt Hewitt.

"Who Do You Think You Are I Am?" is a rough ‘n tumble pop progression. Pivoting hard-stop into the chorus, Aaron offers a nifty satirical musing on lived reality’s implosion among our internet’s pitiless rage galleries. As universal values dissolve in an incident of viral upset, immaculate ‘50s/60s hooks are ground into glittering noir. The chorus brag’s sumptuous melody has the bruised glow of a breaking heart: "I am the window, you are the breeze. I am the pollen, you are the sneeze." The music video is a system overload of spectacle: a karaoke-within-karaoke simulation that renders Aaron like a long-lost PS1 mascot in low-poly 3D.

On his second collection of "sung songs", Aaron’s polymath mastery of the music traces through multitudes of pop feels, ambling from introspective to satiric to love-lorn to skeptic to true devotion. Songs Album II is a matrix of experienced life and aspirational being; dive into the dream on June 26, 2026!
