The Blend Concert History

1. The group was fronted by Jim "J.D." Drown, born in Biddeford, Maine in 1947. While stationed in Korea, he entertained the troops with his musical talents. In 1973, while living in New Hampshire, JD started The White Mountain National Blend with four of his good friends, Skip Smith, Donnie Pomber, Ken Holt and Steve Dore. (The name was shortened to The Blend a few years later.) The Blend was the first band to play the Portland Civic Center, as the opening act for ZZ Top.
