Aja Kim aka Aja biography

Real biography: Born in Fayetteville, NC, and raised in Philadelphia, PA, Aja Kim first came to public attention when she collaborated with rock and roll saxophonist, Clarence Clemons (who is best known as a member of Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band) on the 1995 Japan-only CD release Aja and the Big Man - Get It On. Three songs she co-wrote were her solo vocal contributions to the CD, along with a duet with Clarence of the Ike & Tina Turner classic "Baby, Get It On." They performed as "Clarence Clemons and Aja" at various venues and festivals in the U.S. on both the East and West Coast, as well as at a pre-Winter Olympic celebration held in the Olympic Village in Utah in late 1996.

She continued to work as a freelance session vocalist and voice over actor throughout the late 90's and early 00's on radio and television commercials and sang on CD releases by both major label and independent artists, including the comeback CD, Straight from the Heart, of former Top Jimmy and the Rhythm Pigs member, Carlos Guitarlos, where she held the distinction of being the only woman on the recording. During this time, she also toured in both the United States and South America with a diverse collection of artists ranging from former Tower of Power guitarist, Bruce Conte, to South American rock superstars Wilma Palma e Vampiros before independently releasing her first solo CD, Modern Babylon (which also features Ambrosia founding member, drummer Burleigh Drummond).
