BILLY KILSON picture
Billy is known as a drummer of the highest caliber; known as such for his revelational improvisation and timing, and an undeniable stage presence reminiscent of the great jazz drummers before him. With diverse backgrounds, his projects are a summation of his collective life and musical experiences.

At sixteen, Billy attended the Maryland Gifted and Talented Institute for High School Students. It was here when he first heard about Berklee School of Music. At seventeen he went to the Shenandoah Music Camp and heard one of Stanley Clarke's recordings featuring Tony Williams. After listening to one of Miles Davis’ recording that also featured Tony, Billy said he was mesmerized by this drummers style.

Billy learned that Tony Williams' teacher was Alan Dawson who had taught at Berklee
