I’ve been lucky enough to see Allison and her ensembles several times over the years and I am a big fan of her drumming and her composing. And what a great band of players this is!
“Over the past ten years, Allison Miller’s Boom Tic Boom has established itself as one of the most consistently inventive and hardest working bands in modern jazz. The sextet has been embraced by both fans and music cognoscenti alike, regularly performing sold out shows and garnering critical praise around the world. 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.”
Indeed, Allison Miller’s Boom Tic Boom’s new studio album ‘Glitter Wolf’ is defined by the drummer’s vision as a bandleader. With an unflinching devotion to progressive movement, the recording’s cinematic arrangements are reflective of organized chaos and an urgency to always move the music forward, while interspersing moments of introspection and sheer beauty.”
