During his first audition, none of the 4 judges choose him.  But he received a second shot during the callbacks and Blake grabbed him after he sang the Dixie Chick's "Not Ready to Make Nice."

But before "The Voice," Jared was just a struggling musician.  And although he may not look like it, he's a country boy.  He's worked with Gretchen Wilson, Dierks Bentley and The Muzik Mafia.
