Jaro Local is a artist from the Solomon Islands, who is a fast rising star around the Pacific making waves internationally with his unique blend of modern island music. It should be no surprise that Jaro Local is making music that is resonating with island music fans from all over the world. Jaro began his own musical journey when he was a teenager by joining island urban boy band Dezine with his cousins Sean Rii and Santana. Keen to step out on his own, Jaro Local went solo in 2016 and has reached new musical heights – winning Rookie of the Year, Song of the Year and South Pacific Artist of the Year awards at the PNG Music Awards in 2017, performing in sold out tours across the Pacific and achieving over 16M+ streams over his music across digital platforms.
In 2019 he won the ‘Best International Pacific Artist’ of the year award at the Vodafone Pacific Music Awards. And with a new EP on the way and more exciting projects in the pipeline, the future looks bright for Jaro Local.
