ABOUT US

Peter Carucci and Becki Fleischer have been the heart of The Four26, since founding Four26 Studios on April 26 (Four26) in 2018. Having met at an event hosted by Paul Shaffer - where both of their respective bands were playing - they soon joined forces and have been playing together ever since. Over the years, and especially during the pandemic, they recognized a growing need for flexibility and saw their client's appreciation as they were able to deliver the exact right solution with their access to so many talented musicians. Setting up so many gigs for single players, duos and trio's in the pandemic led to the formation of The Four26 as a musical ensemble. 


Now that the world is slowly stepping back to bigger shows with full bands, The Four26 is primed to hit all the right notes with an arsenal of creative cred. When they are not performing their original music, they take on a crazy-wide range of covers from Beethoven to the Beastie Boys and jam fresh medleys and mash-ups together - often created organically with audience requests. As single players, duos, trios or full band, The Four26 know how to engage an audience and keep them asking for more!  

BOOK THE FOUR26

an arsenal of creative cred

PETER CARUCCI (Vocals/Guitar/Mandolin/Banjo/Harmonica/Bass/Drums)

A life-long musician, Peter first made a name for himself during his college years, attracting sold-out crowds looking to hear his unique percussive-style acoustic guitar and captivating vocals. As a pioneering member of the 90's folk rock scene, he opened locally for acts like Jonathan Edwards (Sunshine Go Away Today) and Dave Matthews. A natural performer, Carucci went on to co-found several bands in New York City, most notably Chasing Sunday, a top NYC and internationally successful band, Steve Liesman & The Mooncussers, The Shaves, and The Four26. He has written, co-written, and produced over forty songs on five albums and has written countless more, many of which have been performed live or featured on artist recordings. As frontman of internationally successful Chasing Sunday, Peter achieved chart successes in New York City, on college radio, and across Europe. A multi-instrumentalist, Peter has performed around the globe and shared stages and studios with members of The Rolling Stones, The Grateful Dead, and The Allman Brothers Band (Bob Weir,  Jeff Chimenti, Bobby Keys, Chuck Leavell), as well as musical legends:  Sammy Hagar, Paul Shaffer, Santana, Bernie Williams, the Heartbreakers, Lew Soloff, Jay Lane, Jason Crosby, Papa Mali, D.J. Logic, Jonathan Wilson, Jim Devito, Randy Jackson, George Murphy, Fantasia, Gala, Anna Falchi, Yannick Noah, Patrick Bruel, and many others. 

BECKI FLEISCHER (Vocals/Rhythm Guitar/Percussion)

Raised in Indiana, Becki found her love of music at a young age winning vocal competitions and playing guitar, piano, French horn, trumpet and any other instrument she could get her hands on.  These days, she is known for her clear and compelling vocals and smooth rhythm guitar.  Layering in ear-grabbing harmonies or taking the lead, she has contributed to cover bands and was a founding member of the indie rock band LAWLESS. Becki currently writes and performs original music and originally arranged covers with her band The Four26, which she also co-founded. She is a member of the Nashville-based songwriting community, Songtown, and in July 2020, Becki released her first EP of original music, Intune, which conveys her fierce belief in the power of personal transformation. Her song "Shift" received airplay in the northern suburbs of NYC and her song "Highest Ground" was recognized with an Honorable Mention in the Folk/Acoustic category of the Indie International Songwriting Network contest in 2021. "Highest Ground" is also the theme music for her podcast, Unleash Your Soul Song.

A versatile guitarist and teacher, Wilson has mastered styles ranging from pop/rock, world music, and jazz to classical.

Wilson holds a degree in classical guitar from the Accademia Musicale in Florence, Italy, a BFA in jazz performance from City College, where he was honored as a valedictorian candidate, and a Masters in Music Education from Boston University. He is a working composer and introduced his first album titled “Viaggio” in 2012.  His compositions can also be heard in the 2014 feature film “Shelter.”

More recently, Dean has been working on a recording of original material for his first full length album, Checkered Past due out in 2022.

FRANK PICARAZZI (Drums/Vocals/Keys/Vibraphone)

An accomplished percussionist and composer, Frank is one of the most sought-after musicians in New York City and maintains an extremely active performance schedule with several ensembles in and around the area. Frank’s compositions have been premiered and performed in several major U.S. cities, including New York, Boston, and Hartford, as well as Florence, Rome and Bari, Italy. In 2000 he was awarded the American Music Center Margaret Fairbank Jory prize for his composition “Struggle in Microcosm.” In addition to that distinction, the same composition was selected to serve as the opening work of the International New Music Consortium’s Summer 2000 tour to Italy.  As a performing artist, Picarazzi has been featured with dozens of performing groups as a vibraphonist and percussion soloist and is featured on several different recordings. He is a founding member of the popular fusion 4th "Alpha Mosaic” and in April 2003 he made his Carnegie Hall debut as a member of the “Marimba Spiritual” ensemble.
