The
musical life of Glen Everhart started on the swing set in
the back yard when he was five years old, singing the Beatles songs he heard
on the radio When he was seven, the Sunday school teacher heard him sing and
made him sing a solo in the church program, which led to duets with his sister
(while he strummed the three chords he knew on the ukulele) when he was ten.
Then, in junior high, Glen discovered that girls liked guys who could sing,
so he began to take it more seriously. "Choir was the greatest thing
that ever happened to me...it gave me my friends, my love for music, and an
identity" says Everhart. By the time he finished high school, there
was no doubt that Glen Everhart wanted to be a singer. "I started teaching
myself the guitar when I was fifteen, and started performing with it (rather
poorly) six months later."
Glen Everhart went to college at St. Cloud State University in the fall of 1979. There he saw other singer guitarists playing in local clubs and coffeehouses. Looking easier and more fun than washing dishes, Glen learned enough songs to get hired and play the St. Cloud "circuit". He did that for five years while earning his bachelor of science degree in K-12 Vocal Music Education, then took a job in the little town of Cold Spring as the elementary music teacher.
After his wife (then girlfriend) graduated from St. Cloud in 1987, they both moved to Minneapolis. After flailing around for a few months (he was determined never to work as anything other than a musician again), Glen got a job at the Metrodome Holiday Inn in Minneapolis playing piano and guitar five nights a week. Aftre that ended, Everhart hooked up with a former college friend named Ted Fyder, becoming "Fyder and Everhart". They worked together for ten years, playing colleges, small clubs, and just about every other kind of gig imaginable, and made three CD's together, their best known being "Goin' Up North."
Now on his own, Fyder and Everhart fans can finally see Glen Everhart "As Is."
