Introduction: I've played the violin most of my life. I first started playing at weddings when I was in high school in a string quartet with friends. I studied music at Seattle Pacific University on a violin scholarship. I've recorded violin for many studio sessions including Barcelona's album "Absolutes", Rosie Thomas "These Friends of Mine", Courtney Marie Andrews "No One's Slate is Clean". I've performed live with Michael W Smith and contributed violin for Macklemore's "Can't Hold Us" music video. I also teach violin lessons out of my home in Mukilteo.

We hired Jared at the last minute for an impromptu dinner party, and it was absolutely delightful! He recommended and brought a friend to play Scandinavian folk songs with him. It was such a treat to have them both. If you're looking for live music to make your event more special, I highly recommend Jared!

Jared and his Six Feet Back band performed beautiful, high quality music for my neighborhood gathering. Jared was more than easy to work with through his clear communication and responsiveness - his band arrived early, performed longer than expected, and delighted my neighbors as they socialized. The band enlivened and enhanced my gathering immeasurably.
