"I''ve always known that music was one of the driving forces in my life. It''s like air, water and food for me. And to be able to share that with the many wonderful people we have come into contact with over the years has truly been a blessing. My goal with music is simple. So many performers dream of stardom and riches but I just want to keep exploring music, and learning. And in doing that, I know my music will continue to grow and get better. And the dream is to be able to continue sharing that music with the people, on whatever level, as long as I possibly can."
Derek Bowen:
Derek began his professional music career at the age of 15 playing drums in a traditional country band. The people dancing , the lights, and good friends playing music together, were just the beginning of his love affair with country music. His musical influences include; Alabama, Charlie Daniels, Steve Miller, Led Zepplin, Miles Davis, Count Basie, and Billy Joel.
Derek''s philosophy of music is fairly simple...people listen to what they like, and it''s a musician''s passion to give them exactly that. Country music is more than just a "twangin" guitar or a "high lonesome" sound. It is the very soul of Middle America and will continue to be just that, God willing.
Aside from music, the greatest blessings in his world are his wife of 11 years (Danielle) and his two wonderful children Megan (9) and Matthew (7).
Derek understands that all of his gifts come from God, and are ultimately granted to him for the glory and service of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Derek is an original member of Shilo and is thrilled to be back again to play some great music for you and be with his friends. He plays Keyboards, Guitar, and sings background vocals.

Doug Chopson Jr.
My passion for playing drums began before I could even talk. I grew up listening to band practice in our house every week, and I couldn''t wait until I was old enough to get up there and play. I finally talked my dad into teaching me to play the set when I was 10 years old. It wasn''t long after that I took over the drums and Dad switched to Bass while Mom sang lead and played rhythm guitar. I played in every school band I could all the way thru high school including Symphonic band, Pep band, jazz band, marching band, and even the Show Choir. After high school I joined up with my friend''s roommate at Ball State and started my first rock band. Since then I have played with a wide variety of bands ranging from Alternative rock, to Heavy metal to country. I am now proud to say that I am the newest member of Shilo. I hope to enjoy many years of making music behind the Shilo cage. If you have not yet seen the cage, you will.....
I am 25 years old, and currently reside in Andrews Indiana where I have lived all my life. I live with future music superstar Ethan, (my 2 year old son) and Lizzie, my dog. A Few of my hobbies include Flying, Fishing, Hunting, Skiing and of course, playing music.
Thanks for taking the time to read about me, and I''m really looking forward to seeing you all at the show!
