Raised in the Rust Belt of America, where Appalachia meets industry, Jared Craig is a born musical craftsman. From small-town garage bands to performing as a professional bassist travelling the world, it was when he began writing songs that he found an ability to connect with people.

 

Coming from a tough, blue-collar family, following an artistic path was challenging. However, whether one is a mechanic, a machinist or a musician, attention to detail and a strong work ethic are common threads.

 

Jared's music is Americana, combining easy melodies with reflections on life, character sketches and short stories. Skillfully blending sounds from rock and country, folk to blues, the songs represent a life devoted to craft and the pursuit of human connection.
