Aaron Harris (born November 11, 1977) is an American drummer, best known for his career with Los Angeles, California-based post-metal band Isis. He was with the band from its inception in 1997 to its dissolution in 2010. Since Isis' demise, Harris has become increasingly involved in his career as a producer/mixer. In addition to recording and mixing the debut from his new band Palms, Harris has also worked on records for Puscifer, Team Sleep, Pelican, Zozobra, Sidewave, Huey, Jakob, The Jezabels and more. He also works as drum tech for Danny Carey of Tool, and Abe Cunningham of Deftones. Harris has also toured mixing live sound for Pelican, Jakob, Melvins, and The Jezabels. He also composes music for television and film.

His early experience in drumming came from his father, who is also a drummer. Harris would play along to Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Emerson, Lake & Palmer and The Police, and has reached his current level of proficiency without any lessons or formal training. He has, however, received some tuition with the tabla, from Aloke Dutta, at the recommendation of Tool's Danny Carey.Melvins and Neurosis are also direct influences on his and Isis' sound. He cites Bill Bruford as an influence on his later material, having been introduced to his work through Danny Carey.
