Playing piano since age 6, and trumpet since age 11, Jara has always kept music at the center of his heart. Melodies burst forth in timely fashion as he takes his cue from the rhythms of human nature.
Catch him around the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond with one of the groups above, or witness him solo singing with a rolicking piano.
Jara my dear friend, thank you for your blessing. even though i'm across the world you are always in my heart. p.s.your music is hotter than ever, hope to dance with your group when i come back that way or maybe we'll have some epic reunion somewhere else in the world... you globe-trot quite a bit yourself these days hehehe
