A Decade of Jared Scharff

10 years ago during the Summer of '07, I went to check out my friend's blog for anything related to SNL, including the house band when I've found a post that Lukasz “Dr. Luke” Gottwald had left the band after 10 years due to the success of his songwriting/ producing credits with artists such as Kelly Clarkson.

Once the abbreviated '07-'08 season began (RE: Writers' Strike), I've noticed a young, blond haired guitarist in Luke's place. I've been asking about the house band's newest addition, but I was left without answers all throughout the season, until one day.

Dave sent me an email about the band's newest recruit: Jared Scharff. Along with an article from what I thought was from Guitar Player magazine, I now realized who he was.

When I first saw him, he reminded me of Edward Elric from Full Metal Alchemist with his shoulder-length hair and spunk. Flash forward a decade, and he looks like Robotech's Max Sterling, or Max Jenius for you Macross purists, but with a shorter haircut.

I'm hoping that he'll return for his 11th season. ;)
