M'Boom was an American jazz percussion ensemble founded in 1970 and led by Max Roach.[1] Although originally a sextet in 1970 over the years the group had as many as ten members in the ensemble but the core of Roy Brooks, Joe Chambers, Omar Clay, Max Roach, Warren Smith and Freddie Waits appear on most of the recordings released by the group.

All of M'Boom's members were percussionists; Roach created the group with the intent of exploring the textures of unusual and non-Western percussion instruments. Among the instruments used by the ensemble were marimbas, xylophones, timpani, vibraphones, gongs, timbales, chimes, bongos, steel drums, glockenspiels, and the musical saw.[1]

M'Boom played at the Monterey Jazz Festival in 1994.
