Born and raised in Denver, Colorado, Shane Eagen is a lively drummer with an extensive background in music theory. Shane began his musical career on piano at the early age of 4 and was drumming by the age of 7. By the time he was in high school, Shane joined the Heritage High School marching band and attained the status of drum captain by his junior year. After graduating high school, Shane attended Colorado State University, majoring in Music Therapy with an emphasis on percussion, all the while working as a freelance drummer for various local rock bands. As early as his sophomore year at CSU, Shane was playing drum set for the university’s Top Jazz Combo and was the section leader for the university’s Symphonic Band. Soon after his sophomore year ended, Shane dropped out of the CSU program and began working with his current project, Skydyed. Skydyed Bio Emerging from Fort Collins, Colorado, Skydyed is a three-piece band that blends cutting edge electronic production with live instrumentation. Featuring Andrew Slattery on bass synths and bass guitar, Max Doucette on guitar and keys, and Shane Eagen on drums, the band integrates generations of the state’s extensive musical heritage with their own deep-seated ties to the electronic music scene. With roots in rock, funk and jazz, Skydyed has created their own, diverse sound that intertwines organic live drums, bass and guitar through soulful jam, hard-hitting bass and profound break-beats. With their unique and advanced production, Skydyed has established itself as a can’t miss performance that bridges the gap between EDM and live music. Since their emergence in early 2014, Skydyed has seen their presence ascend exponentially. Already, they have donned the stage at Arise Music Festival, a sold out Bluebird Theatre with RJD2, as well as the legendary Red Rocks Ampitheatre at last years’ Feed The Rocks event. Their debut EP, ‘New Horizons’ is available for free download on Spotify, Soundcloud, Bandcamp. . Web Links: .
