I am here for Friends

About Me

My name is Jared Ward but most people call me BUR (for some weird reason) First & foremost I'm a christian and I owe everything I have to God. I'm a really simple guy, Music is my life, thats mostly all I ever think about & obsess over at times. I've been raised in a musical home, So I started playing drums when I was 3 & 1/2 and also have been playing Bass & Guitar for awhile now. I work with my Dad at Hitmaker Studio here in Wheelersburg, drumming & engineering, and right now I'm trying to get a band going called Everlasting Fire (so please check us out & tell us what you think) God has givin me a lot and I think it's time to get out there & continue to use my talents for him...
