Official YouTube channel of the American metal band Glacier
Glacier was formed in 1979 by guitarist Sam Easley, with the name, suggested by fellow guitarist Patrick Goebel, derived from a street name at Black Butte Ranch in Oregon. The band released a three song demo, Ready for Battle, in 1984 with the lineup consisting of Easley and Goebel on guitars, Tim Proctor on bass, Loren Bates on drums, and vocalist Michael Podrybau.
In November of 2016, organizers of the Keep It True metal festival in Germany announced the band Devil in Disguise, a Glacier tribute band led by former vocalist Michael Podrybau. On January 8, 2018, with the approval of Glacier's surviving original band members, Devil in Disguise announced that they would recommence under the name Glacier. The current lineup is continuing to write and release original music and tour internationally with vocalist Michael Podrybau, Michael Maselbas & Vincent Ippolito on guitars, Adam Kopecky on drums, Alex Barrios on bass guitar.
