A powerful drummer in a vast array of musical settings--from guesting on late night TV, keeping time for some of today's most beloved singer-songwriters, and being a renowned bandleader/composer in her own right--Allison Miller is always at the heart of the music. Her career includes extensive work with Jenny Scheinman, Toshi Reagon, Ani DiFranco, Natalie Merchant, Brandi Carlile, and Erin McKeown. She's also forged creative alliances with pianist Myra Melford, guitarist Wendy Eisenberg, bassist Scott Colley, and saxophonist Dayna Stephens. She toured and recorded widely with Hammond B-3 legend Dr. Lonnie Smith and bassist Ben Allison, and composed music for Showtime's cult series, The L Word. On top of releasing more than a dozen albums as a leader or co-leader, she's the engine powering the acclaimed Blue Note recording group Artemis.

“Miller is simply bolstering her reputation as one of our most exacting and exhilarating drummers now working in the jazz tradition -- as well as a composer who truly understands the assignment." – Nate Chinen

“In Montreal she (Allison)demonstrated impeccable old-school technique, serving notice that she deserves consideration among the best jazz drummers of the moment. The easy precision of her work recalls an earlier generation of masters, players such as Tony Williams and Billy Higgins. But she deploys her gift in fresh ways." – The Globe and Mail
