New York City native Ari Hest started his career while still an undergraduate student at NYU and spent his early years building his fan base by touring colleges and clubs across the country. In 2004, having released 3 independent records and sold 20,000 cds on his own, Ari signed with Columbia Records and released Someone To Tell to great critical and fan acclaim.

One Way Magazine may have said it best when it wrote, "his soulful baritone voice and soaring falsetto beautifully weave between infectious rhythms and hook-laden music."

Hest's new album, The Break-In, with Mitchell Froom (Elvis Costello, Ron Sexsmith, Bonnie Raitt), was released on Columbia Records. He also released an EP in stores and at digital outlets such as iTunes called The Green Room Sessions, which was recorded and performed by Ari on his laptop using Apple's GarageBand software.
