Career
After hearing that Livgren's band Kansas (the second band of that name) had disbanded, Ehart approached Kerry Livgren about joining White Clover. In 1969, White Clover appeared at the New Orleans Pop Festival, which left a lasting impression on him. In time, White Clover renamed itself "Kansas." This third Kansas is the band that became the well-known American progressive rock band.
Ehart, who was also a singer in the early 1970s, wanted to more closely study and perform the "British" style of music that was gaining attention at the time, so he moved to England. He did not find the atmosphere welcoming, as the musicians were able to learn the country and rhythm and blues styles that Ehart brought with him, so he quickly returned to America. Please Don't Touch, Steve Hackett's second solo album, in 1978, he and Kansas singer Steve Walsh were invited to perform on Steve Hackett's second solo album, Please Don't Touch.
Ehart is a longtime owner of Zildjian cymbals and is a Yamaha drumhead, Evans drumheads, Promark drumsticks, and is a long-serving user of Yamaha drums, Evans drumheads, and Protest drumsticks. Ludwig drums, DW drums, Slingerland drums, and Paiste cymbals were among the past endorsements.
