Singer/songwriter. Internationally-renowned guitarist. Producer. Solo artist. Member of the Juno Award-winning band, The Bros. Landreth.  A lifelong musician, there are few roles Ariel Posen hasn't played. 

Although born in Winnipeg, Posen spent much of his childhood on the road, traveling from show to show with his musician parents. He began playing guitar at 9 years old, kicking off a career that eventually found him traveling the globe for his own gigs, including shows as a member of the roots-rock band, The Bros. Landreth. The group built its audience on the road, opening for Bonnie Raitt one minute and performing with John Oates the next. Not long after winning a Juno Award for their debut album, Let it Lie, they began working on a follow-up record. Coincidentally, they chose the same studio in which a young Posen used to watch his parents record their own albums.

An all-star instrumentalist, Posen's guitar playing has attracted attention outside of the band, as well. His soulful slide work, use of open tunings, and improvisational approach to the instrument are on full display in the online videos he's recorded for the UK-based, Andertons Music Company. In addition to leading guitar workshops and clinics, he's become a sought-after sideman, co-writer and producer for multiple artists, leaving his mark on numerous genres — including country, blues, rock, pop, jazz, and folk — in the process.

Based out of Dallas, TX, "Jason Elmore & Hoodoo Witch" is an original high-energy trio that blends hard-hitting rock, jump/swing blues, vintage soul/r&b, and traces of 60’s country into a unique-but-familiar sound that maintains the essence of American roots music while simultaneously offering a fresh take on its various genres and sounds. Jason Elmore is uncommonly seamless in his ability to tailor his performance to suit the venue and demographic, without compromising the integrity of the band’s mission, which is to give 110% with every single performance, whether performing for a crowd of 2 or 2,000.
