Renowned keyboard player and all-around great human Kyle Hollingsworth of The String Cheese Incident is here!! Kyle has been behind the keys and on the road with Cheese for almost three decades, and has been at it as a solo artist for two decades. His latest album, All We Are, is a timely and lively collection of wonderful songs and great jams, all the while celebrating life and reflecting on the challenges many of us face.
Kyle has a fun-loving charm; he’s quirky and kind, and he talks to me about his life with String Cheese, the impact on his family life, and we compare and contrast our similar musical influences. Kyle brings his easy-going energy and warm enthusiasm to Roadcase for this episode, and I’m super psyched to share this one with you!!
