Allison Miller is a lauded drummer who's mastered a vast array of musical settings. From guesting on late night TV, keeping time for some of today's most beloved singer-songwriters, being celebrated for a series of critically acclaimed recordings with both her own band Boom Tic Boom as well as the allstar group ARTEMIS, Miller engages her deep roots in improvisation as a vehicle to explore all music. Described by critics as a Modern Jazz Icon in the Making, Miller has been named “Top 20 Jazz Drummers” in Downbeat Magazine and her composition "Otis Was a Polar Bear" is on NPR’s list of The 200 Greatest Songs by 21st Century Women. Miller was Monterey Jazz Festival’s 2019 Artist in Residence, alongside bassist/producer Derrick Hodge. She was also the first recipient of the Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation’s Commissioning Grant. In 2019, Miller’s band Boom Tic Boom, featuring pianist Myra Melford, violinist Jenny Scheinman, clarinetist Ben Goldberg, cornetist Kirk Knuffke, bassist Todd Sickafoose, and Miller on drums and composition, celebrated its 10th anniversary with the release of their fifth album, Glitter Wolf. The Wall Street Journal declared, “Boom Tic Boom has a razor-sharp precision that recalls classic drummer-led ensembles of 50 years ago—the music of Art Blakey, Art Taylor and Max Roach come to mind—but Ms. Miller’s band works from a diverse sonic palette that is unmistakably contemporary.” Boom Tic Boom has been met with critical acclaim, making the  “Top 10 Jazz Albums” lists for Downbeat, The LA Times, Jazz Journalists Association, and Something Else. The band has been featured on NPR’s Fresh Air with Terry Gross, WNYC’s Soundcheck and New Sounds with John Schaefer, NPR’s Tiny Desk with Bob Boilen, JazzSet with Dee Dee Bridgewater, The Checkout: Live with Josh Jackson, NPR’s Jazz Night in America with Christian McBride, and the jazz festivals of Monterey, Saratoga, Stanford, San Francisco, North Sea, RockIt, Molde, Guimarães, Chicago, Hyde Park, Saalfelden, Iowa City, Reykjavik, Earshot, Mary Lou Williams- Kennedy Center, Edgefest, Pittsburgh, and Redwood Jazz Alliance
