Angie Aparo

Angie Aparo is an American musician and songwriter from Atlanta, Georgia. Following his initial independent release, Aparo hooked up with producer Matt Serletic in 1998 and began to craft the material that would become his debut album. "The American" was released in early 2000 and featured a full, contemporary, adult alternative-style production missing from his previous, largely solo acoustic work.

While stuck in musical limbo due to record label issues, Aparo released "Weapon of Mass Construction" in 2001, later re-released under the title "One With the Sun," a CD of cover songs taken from varying artists from Beastie Boys to Neil Young and Elton John, as well as two previously unreleased originals. In 2003, he independently released another album, "For Stars and Moon," a Beatles-influenced showcase. Aparo put together backing band The Infidels and toured the Southeast while recording a 2006's EP "El Primero Del Tres" with producer Dann Huff.

In April 2016, Aparo suffered a torn carotid artery which caused a stroke that initially immobilized him and rendered him unable to speak or remember his songs. He returned to the stage at Eddie's Attic in Atlanta after recuperating and rehabilitating for nearly 6 months. In February 2018 he released the album "Life Is a Flower, Life Is a Gun," a return to his pop form.
