Hailing from Madison, Georgia, Ken Tolleson has been delivering his brand of powerful and exciting drum performances, on stage and in the studio, since he was in middle school. An in demand drummer in the Atlanta and southeast area, Ken has built a reputation as a “go to” guy for amazing drumming and he has had the good fortune to have played with many of the region’s elite musicians.

Raised in a musical household, Ken received early drum training from his father and uncle. Playing in clubs at age 14, Ken had to spend breaks outside the venue! Exposed to early rock and roll as well as country, Ken has a repertoire spanning many styles and delivers impressive performances with his solid chops and strong fills.

Now as a member of The Mike Watson Band, Ken brings a new level of excitement which will surely please MWB loyalists and new fans alike! Come out and listen to Ken's playing... we're sure you'll be inspired to buy him a shot of tequila! (top shelf, no salt, no lime please!)
