About

Formed in Fargo, North Dakota, the a cappella group The Blenders consists of Tim Kasper, Ryan Lance, Darren Rust and Allan Rust. The foursome first won a following playing colleges and universities in the early ‘90s, releasing their debut album, Totally Whipped, in 1993. Other highlights include the fan-favorite 1997 Christmas album Nog and the group's major-label debut Loveland in 1999, featuring the hit track "(I Am in Love With the) McDonald's Girl." The group has also found success performing on national television shows, including The Arsenio Hall Show and NBC's The Today Show. More recently, the group recorded two more Christmas albums, 2004's Holiday Best, which quickly found its way onto the Billboard charts, and 2005's Most Wonderful Time. Currently based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, The Blenders continues to write and record new music and tour the country.

    What a great concert!! Full of energy!

    by Bob on 12/11/23Pantages Theatre - Minneapolis

    The Blenders mixed acapella with a high energy back up quartet that complemented their energy. Very tight arrangements and a great blend of holiday standards and music from their repertoire. This concert is a mood changer!

    The Blenders

    by Kare Bear on 12/11/23Pantages Theatre - Minneapolis

    It was a great concert. It was opening night and they had a couple of kinks to work out. Other than that, it was great. I'm not totally sold on the sound system in the Pantages theatre. Great venue, but the acoustics need improving.

    Pure Harmonious Holiday JOY!

    by EPCP on 12/15/22Pantages Theatre - Minneapolis

    The Blenders Holiday Concert was Pure Harmonious Holiday JOY! It's so good to have them back for their annual Holiday Soul Tour which includes traditional Christmas carols & wonderful original songs, with some soul songs mixed in. This year included Ryan's hillarious 'ballet' accompanying the 12 Days of Christmas! This is one of my Favorite Holiday Traditions! I started out going to the MOA to hear them sing 20 years ago and was hooked! I've been going to their Holiday Concerts for 17 years and enjoy treating my friends & family to join me and fall in love with them too. Many continue to join me. My Chirstmas is not complete without them and I play their CDs throughout the season.

    Awesome Performance

    by JJ on 12/14/22Pantages Theatre - Minneapolis

    These guys always put on a great show - I highly recommend it! Their harmonies are amazing, and they are very interactive with the audience. We have made it a tradition to go to their show every year, and will continue to do so!

    Phenomenal show!!

    by CAM on 12/13/22Pantages Theatre - Minneapolis

    I believe we’ve been seeing The Blenders Christmas show for 26 years now. We’ve been taking our kids and now their spouses join us, too. We all agreed this show was one of their best to date!! This is a tradition we all look forward to each year. Thank you for helping get us into the Christmas spirit!

    Followed them since their day 1

    by DeeDee on 12/13/22Pantages Theatre - Minneapolis

    Love these guys like brothers. Wish I could marry Allen. :) Wish they were 100% back to NO BAND. As we get older you will lose more of us because its just too loud and it blows your voices out of the water. :(

    So so

    by Jag on 12/13/22Pantages Theatre - Minneapolis

    After a Covid hiatus I was expecting more. The Blenders basically just showed up and did nothing more then that. Disappointed for sure

    Kicking off the holiday season…

    by Sandie on 12/12/22Pantages Theatre - Minneapolis

    The Blenders have a unique talent… their voices & energy are amazing. The vocal arrangements they put together for traditional Christmas songs pulls you into the music. Even the next day, I had their CDs playing. They just kick start the holiday season at our house! Great concert!

    Incredible entertainment

    by Pat P on 12/18/19Pantages Theatre - Minneapolis

    I can’t believe I had never seen them before. I am a big music lover and just could not believe I waited so long to see them. Took my two grown daughters with and they loved it also. We stated we would be back and next time will bring the granddaughters with. We truly loved it and enjoyed every minute of the show.

    The Blenders - Pantages 2019

    by D. D. on 12/18/19Pantages Theatre - Minneapolis

    Wow. The Blenders still sound so fantastic. Covering some older work this year was a welcome change. Our neighbors in the row behind us were attending their first show and that this is going to become an annual show for them! Thank you Blenders! (Tim, Ryan, Darrin, and Allan)
