JARRAD HOGGETT grew up in Rising Star, Texas. The former pastor of a church in that town, he played in various Gospel bands prior to joining Cimarron. There are 7 professional musicians in his family including a Grandfather who was a recording artist and songwriter in his own right. Jarrad plays rhythm guitar in the band, but is versatile enough to play the drums, too. Our "Gentle Giant" is a great addition to Cimarron.
