About

Great Comet is an Americana-tinged indie rock project that emerged in 2022 as the brainchild of musician and songwriter Aaron New. Drawing inspiration from artists like Jason Isbell, Sheryl Crow, and Foo Fighters, Great Comet pairs introspective, existential lyrics with dynamic, guitar-driven arrangements. New’s Appalachian roots shine through in the music, blending a nostalgic reverence for the sonic landscapes of classic rock and country with a modern indie rock edge. The result is a signature sound that resonates with fans searching for heartfelt storytelling and electric energy, both on record and on stage. Now poised for a breakout year, the band is preparing to release their second full-length album along with appearances planned during South by Southwest (SXSW) in Austin and Treefort Music Fest in Boise.
