Have you heard Kyle Blake?

I grew up around music; my mother was a fantastic singer, my grandfather taught music at a local college and taught voice lessons (later to me). I even thought one day maybe that's what I would do with my life (initially went to college on a vocal scholarship). For me its a hobby, which is why I respect those who have the talent and gumption to make it their work! I mean what better way to make a living than by doing what you love.


Kyle Blake, loves what he does....all you have to do is take a listen to him (I always prefer live) and you know it, instantly. I had a chance to hear him recently in downtown KC, where he preformed for Twestival an event raising awareness and money for Charity: Water.

Young, energetic...just his start, but what a cool sound and voice. If you are a fan of acoustic singer/songwriter types who like to mix it up by throwing in an occasional "white boy rap" take a listen. Some great catchy love tunes, and now you can catch this local KC kid with is self recorded debut album "Holding Doors & Pulling Out Chairs" on iTunes!

Hit him up on Myspace or Facebook too...



So check him out...better yet grab the CD and hit a show and you can say you heard him before he is too big to get close to!

Kyle, keep doing what you love! It shows.
