Ryan Greer is a self-producing artist in New York City whose body of work spans theater, dance and music—all rooted in jazz. Known as “an expert director-choreographer” (The New Yorker), praised for “joyous, jazz-inflected dancing both crisp and sensual” (The Chicago Reader), Ryan’s lifelong passion for music is manifest in his acclaimed work as a vocalist, composer and bandleader. On forming his new collective in 2011, Cabaret Scenes raved, “The Ryan Greer Jazz Group illuminates how a talented crew morphs classics into absorbing jazz numbers.” Currently with the talents of Alex DeZenzo on piano, John Feliciano on bass, Josh Schusterman on drums and Stephanie Wells on keyboards, the group continues to reinvent with their fresh arrangements on the standards and their own innovative compositions.
