Carl Allen (drummer)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Carl Allen (born April 25, 1961) is an American jazz drummer.

Allen attended William Paterson University.[1]

He has worked with a wide variety of musicians, including Freddie Hubbard, Jackie McLean,[2] George Coleman,[3] Phil Woods,[4] the Benny Green Trio, and Rickie Lee Jones.

It was with Green that Allen met bassist Christian McBride. The two have teamed up frequently, working for many combos of big name leaders. McBride recruited Allen for his band, Christian McBride & Inside Straight. Allen is that quintet's drummer for both its first recording, Kinda Brown, and its road tours.

In 1988, Allen and Vincent Herring founded Big Apple Productions, which produced several albums featuring young jazz performers.

He joined the faculty of The Juilliard School in 2001 and became the Artistic Director of Jazz Studies in 2008.[5] He was replaced as director by Wynton Marsalis in 2013 and left Juilliard at the end of the academic year.[6]

In 2011, Allen appeared as himself in two episodes of the HBO series Tremé in a studio recording scene in New York City.

In 2014, he formed his own group The Art of Elvin to pay tribute to drummers Art Blakey and Elvin Jones. The band debuted at the Percussive Arts Society (PAS) conference in Indianapolis, Indiana with Allen on drums, Freddie Hendrix (trumpet), Tivon Pennicott (tenor sax), Xavier Davis (piano), and Yasushi Nakamura (bass).[7]

In 2021, Allen joined the faculty of the UMKC Conservatory in Kansas City as the William D. and Mary Grant Endowed Professor of Jazz Studies.[8]
