We're excited to introduce Jared Nels, Singer, songwriter, guitar player, and Yodeler. Join us on Sunday, July 19 at The Gypsy Highway, and check him out for his first appearance on our stage. No Cover Charge! Jared Yodeld his way onto American Idol, season 18, episode 3. He was born in Des Moines Iowa. He started playing guitar as soon as he was big enough to hold one, and began singing in a local children's chorus at a very young age. But his early teens, he was already playing Eddie Van Halen and Pantera on guitar, and had worked his way into the top level choir in the Iowa youth chorus program. In high school, he was a three-year Allstate chorus, singer, had traveled and performed in front of hundreds of people with the Urbandale studio show choir, and had written numerous songs on guitar which he still performs to this day. And it's early 20s Jared discovered his natural ability to yodel. He won the Iowa State fair yodeling contest multiple times and was featured live on KCI news, Iowa's largest news corporation. He learned how to sing and play guitar simultaneously, and performed and open mics in his college town of Ames, Iowa. After finishing engineering school in 2018 at the age of 25, Jared moved to Santa Barbara, California where his Music career would began to take its course. For the last five years while working at various engineering companies and local farms, Jared has performed all around Santa Barbara in the central Southern California area at various venues and events. He has known for powerful vocals, quick and elegant guitar playing, and unique incorporation of yodeling into various genres. In late 2023, he decided to pursue Music full-time and put his passion to full practice. Jared is currently working on his first album and spreading his musical act as far, and wide as he can!
