March 10: Jeff Blanchard
At ten years of age, Jeff was encouraged to learn a musical instrument and he ended up choosing the guitar. Unfortunately, he did not enjoy the music his teacher made him play and got out of taking lessons when one day a drunk wandered into the studio and got into a fistfight with the instructor.
Luckily after college, Jeff got a piano that brought him back into enjoying making music and only one year later, he wrote the song “She’s Got My Heart.” Many years later, Jeff saw an ad in a local paper for a Guitar Lab and did not hesitate to sign-up to re-learn the guitar. Inspired by the instruction, Jeff had written and recorded his first CD, “Out of Nowhere” shortly thereafter. Today, he is working on marketing his music to an international repertoire of television and film supervisors and enjoys playing for the local community.

April 7: Steve Bernal
Steve grew up on a farm in the Salinas Valley and ever since he could talk has always enjoyed entertaining people. While a senior at Paso Robles High School, he once saw a redneck cowboy sitting on the back of a pickup truck, playing guitar and having all the girls at the party captivated. Steve instantly did what most teenagers would do – go buy a guitar and learn how to play. He has been performing cover songs influenced by Jimmy Buffett, James Taylor, and The Eagles acoustically since his first gig in 1986 and has been hooked ever since. In December of 2009, Steve released his first Indie album, “Out Of My Shell”, which also features three of his own original songs.
