Jeremy Wilford and Kelsey Drayton are the original members of Shattered Atom. The two started out by playing drums and keys in a West Los Angeles guest house. They soon decided that another member would add dimension and found Daniel Khim on craigslist. Wilford, Drayton, and Khim recorded "Why" and began playing shows throughout Los Angeles and Hollywood.

Troy Ross joined Shattered Atom after filling in for the band's part time bassist who had cancelled only days before a big gig at The Derby.
