”So...You Want To Be A Musician?” Podcast with Nick D’Virgilio - Ep. # 4: Jared James Nichols

Greetings everyone! Episode 4 is with a gentleman that knows how to rock, Jared James Nichols. I've known Jared for a number of years and first met him while I worked at Sweetwater. He would come and do workshops, performances, video shoots, and recording sessions there. I could instantly tell that he has an old soul when it comes to his music and playing. He's a killer player and fantastic performer. If he is ever nervous on stage you could never tell. Jared and his band opened up for Mr Big earlier this year in Europe and he knocked it out of the park each and every night. It was super fun to watch. Even though we knew each other from his times at Sweetwater, we got to know each other much more on the European tour. Jared is a very genuine person and just wants to entertain to the very best of his abilities. It was great to get his take on the mental side of being a musician. From his early days he knew he wanted to be an artist that charted his own path and he is making that happen. He is a very hard worker and if there is a place to play he will be there. Whenever Mr Big had a day off on the EU tour, Jared and his band were in another town playing a show. He is dedicated to his craft and vision. Jared's take on the music business, how he deals with his personal relationships while being so busy, and how he takes care of his own mental state while living his dream is very interesting. He has a lot to share and it was great to sit down and chat with him. I hope you will enjoy this episode and make sure to go check out Jared's music. You will be glad you did.
