Sammy Miller & The Congregation

“One of the best jazz acts I’ve seen in years”
– Jazz Journal

“This is feel-good party jazz, harking back to the ’20s and ’30s. It’s brassy, stomp your feet and dance music, and it’s got the raw, uplifting vibe of a New Orleans street parade”

– The SF Weekly

Sammy Miller and The Congregation are on a mission to put the generosity back into jazz and bring art back to the people. Juilliard-trained and drummer on a GRAMMY®-nominated album, Sammy Miller has been hailed as “the perfect player scholar” (The Wall Street Journal).

Miller has spent the last decade making jazz accessible to a new generation of listeners and learners. From Lincoln Center to The White House, TEDx to The Newport Jazz Festival, with special guests including Jon Batiste and Wynton Marsalis, Miller’s band, Sammy Miller and The Congregation, has headlined the most prominent jazz festivals for over a decade. The Congregation specializes in joyful jazz—music that feels good. They recently released the album Joyful Jazz at Lincoln Center (2023).

After working with over 60,000 students in 45 states, Miller launched the music education platform PLAYBOOK to offer teachers the tools to inspire lifelong musicians.
