Ryan Peterson

Ryan Peterson is a jazz guitarist, band leader, educator, and recent transplant to Ithaca, NY. Since moving to New York, Ryan is quickly becoming an in-demand guitarist and had the pleasure of leading his quartet as the opening act on the main stage at the Northeast Jazz and Wine Festival in Syracuse, NY in July 2023.

As a band leader, Ryan leads the Ryan Peterson Trio and the Ryan Peterson Quartet. Always with a modern twist, Ryan’s bands draw from the jazz tradition and perform timeless music from The Great American Songbook, as well as more contemporary jazz standards.

Ryan completed his Master of Music in Jazz Performance at the prestigious University of North Texas in May 2023 where he was the Graduate Teaching Fellow in the Jazz Guitar studio. As a Teaching Fellow, Ryan taught applied guitar and directed one of the Jazz Guitar Lab Bands. Under Ryan’s direction, the group won the award for “Outstanding Ensemble” at the 2023 International Collegiate Guitar Ensemble Festival. In May 2023, Ryan was invited to present at the Forum on Jazz & Popular Music at the Universidad Autónoma de Chihuahua where he gave his presentation entitled “Using the Altered Scale: Arpeggio and Triad Superimpositions for Modern Jazz Lines.” Ryan maintains an active commitment to teaching lessons in-person and online via Zoom.
