Jared Harper is a singer-songwriter based in San Francisco who produces music as vibrant as his city. Even amid the pandemic, the artist is generating waves with his masterfully written tracks. Music lovers are attesting how Jared is creating music that is relevant to the times.
“About You” is the epitome of who Jared Harper is as an artist. It carries a harmonic blend of acoustic and alternative rock, leaving listeners with a sense of nostalgia. According to a music critic, Jared’s voice resounds the iconic vocals of Alex Turner from Arctic Monkeys’, saying both artists possess the same bold upfront charisma. Carrying no trace of second-guessing in his productions, Jared captivates listeners with his unique ability to say what he wants to say, exactly how he wants to say it.
Additionally, “About You” has been compared to the anthemic melodies of songs from the ’60s, ’70s, and ’80s, such as “Sweet Caroline” and “Mr. Brightside.” It gives listeners an unparalleled experience as it transports them to the greatest eras of music while grounding them to today’s upbeat music.
“The funny thing is that this song came to me very quickly one night at three am. I wrote it all down in about ten minutes. The chord and strum pattern felt so familiar, I thought maybe it was a song I already heard,” said Jared Harper. “I have been holding onto this song for a couple of years now, waiting to find the right producer, and stumbled upon Josh Tyrrell. I knew where I wanted to go with it but just didn’t know how to get there, and Josh and I just rode on the same wavelength from the start, and he knew how to drive it home,” he added.
Jared recalls beginning his interest in entertaining through music when he attended a concert at 16 years old. He loved the contagious energy performers gave out to audiences, and seeing how they brought life to events made him want to become a professional musician. Since then, Jared has been nurturing his talent. Despite being born deaf in his right ear, the artist strived to carve his path in the music industry. Today, the singer-songwriter proves to be one of the best upcoming artists in the field.
Truly, there’s no better time than now for the world to hear “About You.” Just as Jared Harper celebrates the song’s success, the music industry also rejoices as it welcomes a new artist capable of positively stirring the scene.
