Salvadore Ross

Salvadore Ross is a Dayton, Ohio-based psychedelic rock band led by Kyle Byrum, who handles vocals and guitar. The group also features Matt Szafranski on bass and Kyle Sweney on drums and percussion. Salvadore Ross is known for its nuanced psychedelic sound, drawing inspiration from 1960s rock. Their music often explores themes of songwriting first, followed by the addition of guitar and other instruments, marking a different approach from Byrum's previous work. The band's discography includes their self-titled album released on Magnaphone Records, which is described as a mix of trippy escapes and socio-political reflections.

Salvadore Ross's recent projects have allowed them to express their creativity freely, with Byrum taking on more control over the production process. This includes using a hybrid recording approach, blending live performances with additional overdubs. The band's live performances are expansive and representative of their psych-rock exploration, often incorporating elements of jazz and blues. Their third album, released in 2024, encapsulates themes of empathetic sadness and societal disgruntlement, providing a unique listening experience for fans.
