Career
Starting on Radio at the age of 19 with his co-host Chris Mott; who also became the co-host for the Aaron Morris Podcast; Aaron had a show playing music from independent record labels as he loved new music. Chris dared Aaron to try stand-up after people found the show awkwardly funny.
The Aaron Morris podcast started in 2011, recorded at his home in Dartford after Aaron's first year in stand-up. With the first series containing guests such as Ray Peacock and Joel Dommett it slowly grabbed a following and has now finished with 3 series. Morris told Mark Dolan live on Fubar Radio on May 1, 2014 that if it wasn't for his comedian guests he wouldn't have been nominated and owes it to them. Since the podcast became popular Morris has been presenting for various TV channels but most recently for Grab LONDON TV at film premieres in the UK interviewing various celebrities. Aaron also appears in an episode of South Side Story on BBC Three late 2014.
In stand-up Aaron is currently writing with CBBC presenter and fellow comic Ben Shires for a split show at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2015. He said its what they've wanted to do for a while.
From starting in radio Morris has a lot of links to the music industry and is really good friends with Hutch Harris; frontman for The Thermals; Jaani Peuhu and Vanity Beach.
