Miles Bozeman was born on April, 5, 1989 in Tallahassee, FL. He became a musician in sixth grade when he decided to play trumpet, which he continued to play for the next six years. During that time he performed in four state festivals and ten district festivals. He also had the pleasure to perform at two invitational events - the B.O.A. (Bands of America) festival, and a conductor’s conference at Vanderbilt University.

In 2004 Miles began taking drum lessons with Ronen Itzik, a masters student at FSU and Berklee graduate. After a few more teachers and two summers at the FSU Honors Jazz Camp, several great opportunities opened up for him during his senior year such as:

• Playing drum set/pan in Lion steel and being invited to perform at the FMEA conference where he had the chance to work with composer/panist Ray Holman.
• Playing drum set in the FSU Honors Jazz Band, where he had the chance to perform with Wycliffe Gordon.
• Playing percussion in the Leon band, including the drum line and orchestral percussion.

That fall Miles was accepted into the Jazz Program at Florida State University's College of Music, where he presently studies with Leon Anderson. At FSU, he has worked with Marcus Roberts, Rodney Jordan, Roland Guerin, and Jason Marsalis in small group situations. He has also had the chance to attend master classes from Chick Corea, Wynton Marsalis, and Rufus Reid. In addition to playing in jazz combos at FSU, he also performs in Florida State's Steel Band, Mas ‘N’ Steel, where he had the opportunity to perform with Jeff Narell.

Currently, Miles is a senior at Florida State University earning a jazz performance degree. He is one of the founding members of the Zach Bartholomew Trio and also the drummer in the band New Friends. This past year, he went on tour with the ZBT and New Friends. In addition to performing at venues from Florida to New York while on his tours, Miles also performed all over Europe with the ZBT while they were on the Grand Princess.
