I worked with Kyle for many years at the Underground Music Showcase. I have found Kyle to be enthusiastic, innovative and always willing to learn new skills. Kyle’s curiosity led him to get involved with many aspects of the festival and enabled him to contribute at a high level. I look forward to working with Kyle in the future. Any organization would be fortunate to have him on the team.

I have worked with many professionals throughout my professional career but watching Kyle grow as a music industry professional has been a pleasure. I started working with Kyle years ago on the Underground Music Showcase, and he helped shape the talent buying and overall entertainment presence over the years. His work ethic is pristine, and he is easily adjustable to a given situation. His ability to go out of his way to help others has made him stand out among the masses. His company, Future Garden, has quickly become a staple and force in the music scene. Kyle is the first resource that I direct people to when they have a music industry-related question.
