Early Life and Music Career
Jared Gomes was born in Fort Worth, Texas. His mother has an Indigenous Brazilian background, and his father has an Afro-Brazilian background.
Gomes started his music career as the lead singer for a new wave band called The Clue from 1984 to 1990. After that, he was the frontman for a band called Live Urban ... Tribe.
Forming Hed PE
In the early 1990s, Gomes met guitarist Wes Geer in the hardcore punk music scene in Orange County, California. They decided to start a new band together. They found other musicians and named their group "Hed," which stood for "higher education."
The band became popular by playing exciting shows at local clubs. They even made their own album called Church of Realities. However, they had to change their name for legal reasons, so they became "Hed PE," with "PE" standing for "Planet Earth."
The band signed with Jive Records, a major record label. After making a few albums with Jive, Hed PE decided to release their music on their own. They later signed with a different label, Suburban Noize Records.
