Jared Rocco, now a high school student, has been
"tickling the ivories" since he was in kindergarten. After 9
years of playing he has nearly worn out the keys on his piano.
Practicing is a passion, and his parents have to drag him away to do
his homework. His jazz/rock/blues/folk piano style is
influenced by some of his favorite artists; George Winston,
Professor Longhair, Oscar Peterson, Miles Davis, James Booker, Vince
Guaraldi, and bands such as REM and the Beatles to name a few.
Jared has performed several times at the Kripalu Center for Yoga &
Health, Chocolate Springs Cafe' in Lenox, MA, a Nashua Rotary Club
Luncheon meeting, Del Rossis Trattoria, and is frequently the featured pianist at
The Cozy Tea Cart events.
If you are interested in having Jared perform at your special
occasion, you can contact him at 603-672-8522 or
