I jammed with Jared at a Guitar Center a few years back. Great guy. Fantastic blues man. Light years ahead of many guitar players I've seen throughout the years.

I met Jared once at the Smiling Moose. Great stuff! Good luck in LaLa land, Jared!

Great clip Jared! I miss seeing you play-I guess it's gonna be awhile unless you are in WI at the same time as me or you come down to Sarasota to jam some Sunday night! Your "Mom" Jeanne

sounds good. Cool turn around at 1:36. I've stolen it! Although, I continue up with the single notes instead of the chord. nice playing.

[MrGrandfatherrock]

also ich finds echt lam was der gute da macht alles standardt licks ohne großen eigenen stil, ziemlich langweilig

[pickital]

That is some serious style from a young guitarist. Love the "How High The Moon" salute to Les at the end. Great playing Jared!!!!!!

Certainly not a bad player, but definitely not anything you couldn't see on a typical night walking down Beale St...Maybe it's because I'm from Memphis and I hear it all the time.

[Fishies125]

@wlaycook It's just his feeling. He really coaxes some strong phrasing out of the guitar. If you search Jared Nichols Landric and watch those videos of him playing Landric guitars by himself you can really hear how strong a player he is and the great feeling he puts into his notes with his fingerstyle playing.

I guess this is what everyone who shit talks shredding likes....not my thing at all.

[MistahhB]

@JayWeishaupt There are many who like both styles. Don't be a hater.

[ab763]

[buska100]
