Covers

• On the first AaRON album, they covered the song "Strange Fruit", a song which was made famous by Billie Holiday. The version they perform on the album is drawn largely from Nina Simone's rendition on her 1965 album Pastel Blues .

Live albums

Soundtracks

• 2006: Je vais bien, ne t'en fais pas (soundtrack of film) in 2 tracks:

  • "Mister K."
• 2013: Les yeux fermés (soundtrack of film directed by Jessica Palud)
