Backstory:
Vacant Eagle was formed in a dusty garage in the heart of Boise, Idaho in 2011. The band is composed of four members: brothers Jake and Michael Patterson on guitar and drums, respectively, their childhood friend Jessie Swanson on vocals, and later addition, bass guitarist Elijah Moore. The group initially bonded over a shared passion for rock n’ roll and dreams of escaping their small town. They began crafting their unique sound in the Patterson’s garage, playing local gigs until their break came in 2013 by winning a local battle of the bands competition. This led to a recording contract, and Vacant Eagle has been soaring high since.
