Short Releases

Previous Projects

Ramshki Alley

Bandcamp | Spotify | YouTube Music | Apple Music

A Syracuse, NY-based rock band started by myself & Eric Graf that dabbles in folk, alternative, and progressive rock storytelling.

live at sub rosa (Apr 2019)

Our first performance under the name “Ramshki Alley” (a semi-phonetic take on the Irish word “ramscéalaí” for “storyteller” or “silly talker”). Recorded live at Subcat Studios as part of the Sub Rosa Sessions performance series #38 (Ian Doherty w/ Eric Graf), created and hosted by Amanda Rogers.

ramshki alley (mar 2021)

Nominated for an award at the 2022 Syracuse Area Music Awards (SAMMYs), Ramshki Alley’s self-titled debut grooves, rocks, and moves as it explores themes of fear, loss, and finding the place where you belong.

Lee Terrace

Bandcamp | Spotify | Apple Music | Archive.org

A progressive rock jam band started by Kevin Metzger, Mike Sloan, and PJ Sweeney that I joined in 2013 as a keyboardist and vocalist. Our music spanned everything from catchy riffs and melodies to sprawling epics inspired by The Lord of the Rings (yes, multiple!).

deep blue (aug 2015)

A 4-song, 31-minute powerhouse of melodic songwriting mashed up with musicality and improvisation, all bound together by the familiar, heavy-hitting instrumentation of rock.

live shows

In my time with the band, Sloan recorded nearly all of our live shows and put them up on Archive.org. While they vary in recording quality, they still stand as a testament to all the work we put into the band–and feature a variety of original songs we never got to record properly.
