An realized writer and musician, Aidan Baker has his artistic fingers in many pies. After graduating from Montreal's McGill University with a degree in Literature and Religious Studies, Baker released a four-song acoustic cassette as "Aodhan" (the Gaelic spelling of his name). He besides teamed up with two fellow Toronto musicians to create ARC, an ambient guitar-driven trio which garnered much praise for its design and integrity. The group released three albums, including Two in 2001. Having been promulgated in major literary magazines across the country and internationally, Baker released his debut album Element in 2000. In 2001, he released his follow-up, Letters, a concept album based loosely around letters from both Jack the Ripper and the Marquis de Sade.
