He founded various bands including Native Born Alien and Fall Away Façade. He received training in Jazz guitar at Jeff Berlin’s Player’s School of Music in Clearwater, Florida and studied guitar theory under jazz guitar guru Yuzuru Tanakura. After acquiring a business degree from Central Washington University and working a few years in global logistics Shane left the United States for missionary work and held several odd jobs including being a chauffeur, milking cows, and teaching guitar lessons. While overseas he started a Guitar Club in the Maori village of Waharoa, NZ, performed for troops at Yokota U.S. Air Force Base in Fussa, Japan, and recorded music in Auckland, NZ for a YWAM compilation album.

Upon returning stateside he worked on a salmon fishing tender in the Bering Sea, and the skipper, a retired Nashville songwriter encouraged Shane to make the move to music city. Shane took that advice and now resides in Nashville where he recorded the Genrelicious EP, an avant-garde blend of influences fashioned together by a master craftsman of guitar music. Some songs are instrumental, others have vocals, all produced with the intention of highlighting the unique abilities of one of Nashville’s most versatile up and coming guitarists.

Shane has recently released several singles including 'Run!', 'Just Friends' and 'Blood on the Floor', the latter for which he also released an official music video. Shane currently plays for and writes with several Nashville artists, plays every second Saturday at Merridee's in Franklin, TN, and headlines the Genrelicious Showcase in various cities featuring artists of all styles and backgrounds.
