My Dad was my first Bass Teacher, Victor Wooten had a huge influence, of course Jaco, no one plays for the song as well as Chuck Rainey (great teacher and story teller), and anyone else I have ever played with or listened to!
With his father and four uncles actively playing in bands and his only remaining uncle working for a radio station, it seems that music is built into Jared’s Y chromosome. After learning some bass-ics from his father at age 12, he began developing his bass-playing skills further by listening to music, playing what he heard, and then making it his own.
In the summer of 2006, Jared studied with Chuck Rainey and Victor Wooten at Victor’s bass nature camp, and during a blindfolded solo, he became one of the few attendees in the camp’s history to inspire Chuck to dance. Jared’s first album was released in October of 2007, combining solo bass and pop music to create unique, complex sounds that are still catchy and listener-friendly. Beacon Journal writer Malcolm Abram described Jared as having “the technique and a love for harmonics as melody a la Jaco Pastorius.”
Jared is the main bass player for Branches of the Same Tree, Winslow, Rob Metz, and his own project, The Jared Lees Band. He has also played with artists Keith Bachman, Jason Farnham, Chris Mitchell, Jeff Nichols, and Rachel Roberts. He has covered funk, jazz, pop, rock, Motown, R&B, blues, Latin, country, folk, and electronic.
Just stopping by to let you know that my new song "Long, Long Time" is up and available to listen to and download. Give it a spin and let me know what you think!
