Kyle Gray Young is a singer/songwriter based out of the Milwaukee area. He has released eight self-produced albums over the years. He started out teaching himself guitar and piano at an early age and quickly learned many other instruments when he started band in school. This knowledge of other instruments made it appealing to him to start learning how to arrange and compose music for others. In high school, he started composing pieces for his classmates to play at the Illinois High School Association's annual Solo & Ensemble competitions. Additionally, songs from his albums have been featured in films and TV commercials around the world. He currently teaches private guitar and piano lessons in both Wisconsin and Illinois. In his spare time he likes playing video games and embracing his Finnish heritage with music, language, and cooking.
"I can say things [through music] I can’t normally say. But not just with lyrics. With the music too. It’s really quite nice to be able to make other people feel a certain way just by creating music. It’s also quite satisfying to have the sense of accomplishment when I finish a new piece. It’s like a little time capsule of how I felt at a certain moment in my life." |
