It was standing-room only for Jared Young's album release party at Saint Rocke, one of L.A.’s hottest new music venues. Young's new album, Several Shots At Redemption, was released April 9th and his fans showed up in force for the debut at the Hermosa Beach club. "It was an amazing night," Young said, "and it was very special for me to celebrate with my hometown crowd."

Young opened the show with "It's Alright, It's Over", the first track on his new record, and he kept the high-energy crowd on their feet for the entire 90 minute set. Young had previously released a few sneak-peek songs from the new album on his website, so many of his fans were singing along to songs like "People R Strange", "Good Things, Bad People", and "Summer Rain". Young also played songs from his 2006 record So Many Miles, including the contagious "Dizzy and Unreliable" and "In This Day and Age".

One fan, Billy Mazzie, remarked about the show, “The show was great. Jared’s music can be summed up in one word -- infectious!”

]]>Early Review of Jared's Upcoming Albumhttp://www.jaredyoung.com/blog/early-review-of-jareds-upcoming-album.htmlJaredYoung.com2009-02-13T19:54:39ZJared's upcoming CD "Several Shots At Redemption" got an early look by our friends over at Indie Music Stop. After being one of the first folks to hear the record, writer C.W. Ross had this to say:

"8.4 out of 10 ... Jared Young is back with his latest release, Several Shots at Redemption. This 12-song release offers up a blend of singer-songwriter, acoustic, and rock styles.

The main thread that ties all of the songs together is Young's vocals: they're powerful, passionate, crisp, and take ownership of each of the songs.

My favorite tracks were: "More Than Perfect" - I liked the clean crisp sound found on it, "Meant to Be" - one of the more rock edged songs found on the release, and "People R Strange", which is the most unique song on the CD that puts forth a good message with the lyrics, "...do your own thing and you'll never regret it..."

Jared Young's music will appeal to fans of artist like Bob Dylan, Elvis Costello, and Coldplay.

Thanks so much to C.W. Ross for taking the time to review it, we'll keep you posted on more early reviews as they come in!
