SongBlast
The two talented entertainers that make up SongBlast have a combined professional stage experience of 50 years. As consummate fans of the history of popular song, Glen Everhart and Pat Balder have joined forces to create a one-of-a-kind show.  Having rocked a thousand stages and strummed a million strings, both men openly confess to having an addiction to guitars – and great songs.

Glen Everhart

After finishing his B.S. in guitar and vocal performance, Glen spent 3 years teaching music before his performing career quickly took over his full-time professional calendar. Glen has sold over 30,000 CD’s of original music and over 10,000 downloads. His music has been featured on the Today Show, Britain’s Got Talent, ESPN, and The Golf Channel.
 
Pat Balder
Before joining forces with Glen Everhart, Pat Balder was a veteran frontman and guitarist in successful, national corporate rock bands. Prior to that, Pat was signed to Polygram Records and Publishing where he honed his craft as an original artist, producer, and bandleader. After departing Polygram, Pat built a recording studio and production company through which he independently released 7 CD’s of original music, produced numerous albums for other artists, and wrote and produced corporate and commercial music for the likes of Target, Harley Davidson, 3M, Sun Country and others.
