Soulful singer/songwriter/piano player Jared Lee emerged on New York City’s music scene as a bright-eyed Boston native with incredible talent but limited experience and exposure in the music industry. A standout in various a capella and other musical groups in high school and college, Jared's love for music was always apparent and his abilities always undeniable. Shortly after graduating from Vanderbilt University at the top of his class, without fear or hesitation, Jared sacrificed a scripted life in favor of a colorful journey following his passion for creating and performing music.
The past few years have taken Jared on a wild ride filled with a variety of unique and stirring experiences. Recording in studios all over the world, including New York City, Los Angeles, London and Ibiza, Jared has had the opportunity to cultivate his sound and identity through working with a variety of talented and established writers, producers and musicians. Some of these successful professionals include Mark Hill (Craig David, Artful Dodger), Mike Mangini (Joss Stone, Bruce Hornsby), Track & Field (Nelly Furtado), Cliff Magness (Avril Lavigne, Kelly Clarkson), Printz Board (Black Eyed Peas), Jeff Blue (Linkin Park), Brian West (Nelly Furtado), Brian Howes (Hinder, Daughtry) The Writing Camp (Beyonce, Brandy) , Jason Miller (Kanye West, Keyshia Cole) and newcomer Francois-Paul Aiche. During his time in New York City, Jared was able to develop a loyal fan base through performing at many well known venues such as The Canal Room, Coda, The Delancey Lounge and The Bitter End.
In December of 2008, Jared signed an exclusive worldwide publishing deal with Chrysalis Music Group, one of the world’s leading music publishers. Jared is very excited to be on a roster with great artists/songwriters including Outkast, Ray Lamontagne, Gnarls Barkley, Kylie Minogue, Paul Oakenfold, Velvet Revolver and more.
The culmination of these creative experiences has resulted in a fresh,
rehearsed singer/ songwriter who looks as good as he sounds.
Jared Lee is the type of rare singer who combines an astounding vocal range
with innovative yet soothing melodies, and inspirational lyrics. His songs
depict passionate, personal life experiences and feelings, encompassing
messages of pain, love, fear and hope.
Jared currently resides in Los Angeles writing and recording new material for his debut album with various writers and producers as well as writing for and working with other established and up and coming artists. On the performance front, Jared has had the pleasure of performing the National Anthem at both the L.A. Dodger and Galaxy games numerous times and continues to bring down the house with his high profile shows in Hollywood at venues such as Hotel Café and Green Door.
Stay tuned for the highly anticipated debut album.
