UPTOWN FILE: #556783 NAME: Aaron Gitnick RANK: Strategic Defense Initiative SPECIALTY: Guitar, Bringin' the Big Guns There are many reasons why a person would take up the guitar, but for Aaron it came down to the simple fact that CHICKS DIG GUITARISTS! It was this motivating fact that led him from a childhood in SoCal to the fertile musical territory of Berkley, CA where he honed his musical prowess to a razor's edge while attending UC Berkley. While at school he received a minor in road trip science (once driving from California to Tennessee in a 24 hour period) and cultivated his self-destructive skills by developing a love for Cal sports. Aaron is currently helping to define the Uptown Sound with his original guitar flavorings. Aaron Gitnick at a Glance
