September 8, 1956 — California, USA

Michael J. Brown (born September 8, 1956), a.k.a. "Wild" Mick Brown, is an American retired drummer who played in the rock bands Dokken, Lynch Mob, The End Machine, and Xciter, as well as in Ted Nugent's band.

He joined Dokken in 1981, replacing Gary Holland, who left Dokken to join Dante Fox and later Great White. Before that, Brown played drums in The Boyz (1975–1977) and then in Xciter (1977–1981). Both bands also featured future Dokken bandmate George Lynch. Apart from Don Dokken, Brown was the only person to appear on every Dokken album. He is credited on Broken Bones, but Jimmy Degrasso played on the record, not Brown.

In 2006, Brown played drums for Nugent on Nugent's Unleash the Beast Tour, and in 2013 Brown played drums for Nugent on Nugent's Mid-West Rock-n-Roll Express 2013 Tour.

He is also a member of Tooth and Nail, a band that features classic-era Dokken members George Lynch and Jeff Pilson. Their debut album Slave to the Empire was released in October 2012. The band was renamed T&N.

He had a solo band called The Bourbon Ballet with lead singer Scott Hammons from the band Tunnel.

In July 2019, Brown said he was taking a break from touring and playing live.
