Description

Kyle is the son of the Oscar winning actor/director Clint Eastwood and is now an esteemed bass player and band leader. Now is the follow up to his first Candid recording, the critically acclaimed 'Paris Blue'. This new release is a mix of upbeat vocal tracks, which feature the voice and compositional expertise of Ben Cullum (brother and songwriter to Jamie Cullum) and a collection of chilled sleek contemporary jazz instrumentals. Any of the three vocal tracks that feature Ben could be a hit, balancing well the soulful sound of Ben's voice against that of Kyle's bass. Michael Stevens also features on vocals with the breathtakingly dream-like rendition of Sting's classic "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic". This record is a collaboration which reads like a who's who of the current British pop/jazz scene. It features the BBC British Jazz Award winning pianist Andrew McCormack with Ralph Salmins on drums, who has worked with everyone from Madonna to Macy Gray, and ace London musicians Graeme Flowers and Dave O'Higgins on trumpet and tenor saxophone respectively.
