Allison Miller’s drums are a hypnotic, driving force propelling her groundbreaking jazz ensemble Boom Tic Boom forward.

With deep roots in exploration via improvisation, Miller has been recognized as one of the “Top 20 Jazz Drummers” by DownBeat Magazine and is described by critics as a “Modern Jazz Icon in the Making.” Founded in 2008, the group has released five critically acclaimed albums, the most recent being Glitter Wolf, lauded by NPR for their cohesion, where all parts are said to “fit together like clockwork.”
