Jared Lekites is a singer/songwriter from Southern California by way of New England. Heavily inspired by the revolutionary music of the 1960s, much of his influence is evident in his sound which hearkens back to the more simple, bygone days of analog tapes and authentic instrumentation. Writing, performing, and engineering his music soley by himself, Lekites (now based in Oklahoma) has crafted and developed a unique and striking musical style.
His first independent release, 2010's 'Looking For Diamonds', was met with critical acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic with many comparisons to his idols The Beatles and Brian Wilson being delivered.Have you performed in front of an audience?I play a handful of acoustic shows as well as a few surprise band gigs here and there.

Very well done... Are the Voices all you?... Sounds like a whole band.
Great song...I Love it
Pretty Pop Rock tune - reminds me a lot of John Lennon. Well composed and performed - enjoyable listen!

Really like this Neil Young cover, I have an acoustic cover of his as well on my songlist, so always like the hear others on SC. Nice clear tone, clean sounding vocals, can't really hear the harmonica solo, but guitar is nice and clean sounding on production as well....nice job, thanks for sharing ;)
