George Michael Dolenz Jr. ( DOH-lənz; born March 8, 1945) is an American musician and actor. He was the drummer and one of two primary vocalists for the pop rock band the Monkees (1966–1970, and reunions until 2021), and a co-star of the TV series The Monkees (1966–1968). Dolenz is the last surviving member of the group, following the deaths of Davy Jones (in 2012), Peter Tork (in 2019), and Michael Nesmith (in 2021).
