Three time GRAMMY™ Award-Winning Drummer Ulysses Owens Jr., is known for being a drummer who “take[s] a back seat to no one,” and “a musician who balances excitement gracefully and shines with innovation." (The New York Times)

A versatile performer, producer, and educator, Owens has released eight albums as a leader alongside his GRAMMY-winning work with Kurt Elling, The Christian McBride Big Band, and the Generation Gap Jazz Orchestra. His eighth album, A New Beat with his "Generation Y" band, topped the JazzWeek charts for eight weeks and spawned a viral Nirvana cover with over 5 million views. As an author, Owens has published three books through Simon & Schuster and Hal Leonard, and contributed as a writer to The New York Times. His educational impact spans over seven years on the jazz faculty at The Juilliard School, artistic leadership at Jacksonville’s "Don’t Miss A Beat" non-profit, and serving as Drumeo’s inaugural jazz drum instructor. Recently, Owens made his Broadway debut in A Wonderful World: The Louis Armstrong Musical at Studio 54 and was named "Jazz Drummer of the Year" by both the Modern Drummer Readers Poll and the Drumeo Awards.
