Jared Byers
Jared Byers is the former drummer of the popular Christian rock band Bleach. He was the band's drummer from 2000 to 2004 replacing Matt Gingrich. Byers also filled in as the drummer for the Christian rock band Relient K for a short time in 2000.
Byers now plays in a smaller band called Royal Empire Music, along with former Bleach band member Dave Baysinger. Byers also filled in on drums for Audio Adrenaline during their spring (Feb-Apr) 2007 tour, which were the band's final shows. Drummer Ben Cissel and guitarist Tyler Burkum had already been devoted to other projects when Audio Adrenaline was called for an extended tour.[1] He also played drums for The Rocket Summer on tour.
In 2003, Jared Byers and his brother Milam (who was also in Bleach) took time off after their brother, Joshua, was killed while deployed in Iraq. Good friends Tedd Foxx and Ethan Luck filled in while they were away from the band. Jared and his brother Milam returned to playing in the band around the time of Rock the Universe 2003, where it was said that they were "clearly giving their heart and soul into each moment of the set."[2]
In 2010, the supergroup The Honeymoon Thrillers was formed. This band consists of Nathan Barlowe (from Luna Halo) on guitar and vocals, Cary Barlowe (from Luna Halo) on lead guitar, Chris Boyle (from Mean Tambourines) on bass, Josiah Holland (from The Lonely Hearts) on keyboards, and Jared Byers on drums.
