About Jared James Nichols:

Within two weeks of picking up his first guitar at age 14, Wisconsin-born singer/songwriter Jared James Nichols started ripping up the stage at a blues jam. He recalls, “I was with all of these old cats from Chicago playing the blues. The music immediately resonated with me. It was all about the feeling and the soul behind it. None of these guys were music nerds. They were true blues guys playing what they felt. That power and reality struck a chord in me.” 

The resulting dual-decade journey has taken him across countless stages, collaborating with his guitar heroes and piling up accolades and applause as he brings the modern blues sound to a new generation. Apply the techniques he willingly shares to put your passion into your strings!
