Pelton is also the longtime drummer in the house band for the NBC TV network's sketch comedy and music program Saturday Night Live.
Pelton studied at Indiana University's Jacobs School of Music in Bloomington, Indiana, earning a bachelor's degree and a Performer's Certificate in 1985.
During his summer breaks, Pelton sought out experts elsewhere, including Alan Dawson, who is best known as an early teacher of jazz drummer Tony Williams.
During his time as a student, Pelton taught for a brief period, and also conducted private drum lessons.
He joined the Saturday Night Live band in 1992, saying "It’s a pretty mellow gig...It’s really only 20 days out of the year."
Shawn was the touring drummer on Jon Bon Jovi's Destination Anywhere tour in 1997-1998.
Pelton was born in Kansas City, Missouri.
"I grew up always banging on things," Pelton said describing his childhood.
His first real musical instrument was a cello in 5th grade.
But he "bailed as soon as possible to the drums," Pelton said.
"I was running around doing gigs at 14, which was a great situation, to actually be in a band that young. The sooner you start making music with other people the better."
One of his students was Pete Wilhoit, who would later become a member of Fiction Plane, the opening act for The Police on their 2007 reunion global tour.
Since 2007, Pelton has been regularly appearing as the drummer on Daryl Hall's internet concert series Live from Daryl's House.
Pelton also served periodically as the substitute drummer in the CBS Orchestra on Late Show with David Letterman during regular drummer Anton Fig's absences.
Pelton is also a founding member of the NYC-based band The Cringe.
