Selected Recordings:

With influences from Monk to Led Zeppelin, Peckham has opted to not just combine two styles but to more so articulate a passion for the music. His guitar playing is quite accomplished as he uses and abuses his axe with fiery skill, utilizing sounds such as distortion, delay, and phase effects without the use of overdubbing.

Latest release from Ronan Guilfoyle's Lingua Franca-Exit. Great writing, this time involving some great Irish traditional musicians well versed in improvising.

Um is a really great group and this record represents the type of stuff we play every week at AS220 in Providence. It's more groove oriented stuff than most people expect. You can have access to the recording through disclogic by clicking on the cover or here.

This recording features Bob Gullotti, Dave Zinno and tenor saxophonist Philippe Crettien, leading off with a tune of mine called "Side Effects." Clicking on the graphic on the left will take you to a place where you can buy it at amazon.com.

This album features the band Ronan Guilfoyle's Lingua Franca, with Ronan on bass, Julian Arguelles on tenor and soprano, and Tom Rainey on drums. Ronan came up with some great arrangements of Charlie Parker tunes, with Ornette's Bird Food and Dizzy Gillespie's Blue and Boogie thrown in for good measure. You can order it directly from Ronan here.

These albums feature Ronan Guilfoyle, Owen Howard with Tanya Kalmanovitch on viola and violin. You can pick them up here.
