Old-fashioned rock-n-roll with a generous helping of classic country and soul to boot.Band/artist history
Jared Johnson grew up in Southern Utah and has played guitar and drums professionally for ten years; playing guitar for St. George ska ensemble The Goo Blurs and alternative rock favorites Sundive. After moving to Salt Lake City he joined forces with Alt. Country masters the Trigger Locks, this time on drums, and most recently completed a stint as drummer for national act and critically acclaimed Cub Country. He produced his new record, Derailing Spiritual Death, with Marcus Bently; the two of them doing a sizable chunk of the work, with help from several talented musicians. The sound created is reminiscent of a time long gone, but not forgotten; borrowing elements from the roots of rock, country, and the blues. His new band, The Jackpines, picks up right where the record leaves off. Johnson has shared the stage with numerous great artists including: Cross Canadian Ragweed, The Mother Hips, Richmond Fontaine, Jerry Joseph & the Jackmormons, Robert Earl Keen, Lucero, Young Dubliners, Reel Big Fish, Berlin, Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash, The Aquabats, and Convoy, among others.Have you performed in front of an audience?We play regionally around the state of Utah.
