Aaron Dessner Parents, Siblings, Family

Aaron Dessner’s twin brother Bryce Dessner is a composer/guitarist for “The National“. The siblings were so similar in appearance and demeanor that they felt compelled to announce their names into off-screen interviews.

Around the age of 12, Aaron and his brother collected baseball cards. They reminisced, they traded their cards in for a guitar and a bass and started to jam to Firehouse and Neil Young. Furthermore, the siblings confessed that they were “a band of brothers”. Rather than driving them apart, the sense of familial spirit was what kept them going on.

Reportedly, Aaron grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio. Also, it was known that Aaron had an older sister named Jessica Dessner who lived in Italy. Maybe the melophile ran in the family —  Jessica was an artist/dancer/poet. Unfortunately, she suffered from breast cancer.

As for his parents, Aaron shared that he was brought up on “Midwestern ethos —a family-first kind of thing.” Moreover, his father was a jazz drummer. Finding it hard it makes money as a musician, his father stashed his drums away in a closet and found another job.

It was at the age of 6 or 7 when Aaron found his father’s drums. But at the time he was into playing soccer, and basketball and tennis, baseball at the school. Though he never thought of pursuing music for a career, it wasn’t until ninth grade that his sister’s boyfriend would spark his interest in music.

In 2019, Aaron’s brother revealed that things weren’t going well with their parents. He shared,

“Our family is kind of imploding. The relationship with our parents, seeing things you always expected to be there, suddenly not there.”
