Jazz Journal called Ryan Meagher, “the most interesting new guitarist on the scene since Pat Metheny.” JazzTimes remarked that his music was “startingly original stuff.” Downbeat Magazine noted that, “there’s a strong element of folksong in Meagher’s compositions, expressed by his singing melodies and commitment to the gravity and beauty of a balanced lyrical arc.”

He has nine albums under his own direction, has been a sideman on many others. The most recent album, AftEarth, is a collaboration with his quartet and a visual artist, Tina Granzo. He has been influential in expanding the jazz scene in Portland as he is currently the Artistic Director of the Portland Jazz Composers Ensemble and was a co-founder of the Montavilla Jazz Festival.  He is the Jazz Director at Lower Columbia College in Longview, Washington. He also holds teaching appointments at the University of Portland, Mt. Hood Community College, Willamette University, as well as a private studio. Previous teaching appointments include San Diego State University, West Valley College, Portland Community College, and was the jazz director at Metropolitan Youth Symphony for six years.
