He performs on acoustic and electric basses and baritone saxophone, specializing in creative, composer-driven projects that blur the lines of traditional genre. Kyle has premiered new works by Eve Beglarian and Erik Nielsen, and appeared with artists including Moppa Elliott’s Acceleration Due to Gravity, Brian Boyes’ Saturn People’s Sound Collective, Kat Wright, Francesca Blanchard, Andy Gagnon’s LOVECRAFT, TURNmusic, the Vermont Jazz Ensemble, and Cricket Blue.
