Nicknamed “The Bobblehead” and with headphones fused to his head, he dances a lot while sitting in various public locales such as the bus, classroom or café.

Aaron Walther

aw

Aaron Walther is a third year philosophy student at the University of Texas who wants to pursue a career in either acting or writing. He also writes for the Texas Travesty, UT’s satirical newspaper. His love of music spans a number of genres, leaning towards those unnamable. Some examples are neo-classical, skram, experimental dub-step, and folk-funk fusion, but the only requisite Aaron has for enjoying music is that it must be “unapologetically and passionately true to the creator,” and “without pretense.”
