DEANE OGDEN is an American record producer, session and touring drummer, and co-founder/songwriter/drummer for Stone Cold Killers.
Born to two jobbing musicians in the coastal mountains of the Pacific Northwest, Deane was raised during the musical era of record stores, radio, and sneaking into over-18 live shows with fake IDs. When Deane was five years old, his mother brought home a .45 of "My Sharona" by The Knack, which he played repeatedly for weeks until she yelled at him to stop… then he played it some more. The hook was set and Deane embarked on what would be a life-long pursuit of groove and pocket, studying iconic drummers such as Jim Keltner, Mickey Curry, Paul Leim, Billy Cobham, Tony Williams, Vinny Colaiuta, and Phil Gould. While still in grade school, Deane was invited by the legendary Al Green for two nights on the road, which led to him leaving home at 17 to tour and play professionally.
Upon moving full-time to Los Angeles, Deane got busy filling in around town for various drummer friends on sessions and on stage, leading ultimately to a recording session at famed Sound City studio with Andrew Love of the Memphis Horns. Immediately enamored with the wonders of the recording process, Deane committed himself solely as a recording drummer for the likes of Stevie Wonder, Kenny Loggins, Seal, Jewel, Robbie Williams, George Duke, Al Jarreau, and legendary producers Phil Ramone, David Foster, John Alegía, and Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds. Deane has also recorded or toured with Britney Spears, Gavin Degraw, Selena Gomez, Dido, Andrea Corr, Natalie Merchant, Mary J. Blige, Mandy Moore, Duncan Sheik, Jessica Simpson, Natalie Imbruglia, Leona Lewis, and more.
​
On the songwriting side, Deane has written music for numerous feature films and NBC and CBS primetime network television. From 2002 to 2006, Deane wrote and produced for ABC Sports’ Emmy Award-winning Monday Night Football, and NBC Sports has commissioned his original work for all of its Olympic Games telecasts since 2008.
​
Deane proudly endorses Kyre Drums, Bosphorus cymbals, and has used Roland electronics and Vater drumsticks for over 20 years.

Around the turn of the Millenium, Deane began a secondary career as a record producer, working primarily in the singer/songwriter and adult-oriented rock genre categories. These days, record production consumes a large part of Deane's musical activity, working with artists from his project studio on the tropical island of Bali.
Deane is also the founder, producer, and principal songwriter for SCK, an Indonesia/American prog-rock outfit formed in 2022 alongside four other session greats from around Indonesia.
