Jaared suffered from asthma as a child, and almost died on from the chronic lung disease. His doctor told his family that learning to play a wind instrument would strengthen his lungs, and Jaared chose the Alto Sax.[3]

Jaared tours with a famous British contemporary jazz guitarist Peter White.[4]

Jaared is a regular guest on the Jimi King show, which airs EST 12- 2 pm on Sundays.[5]
