Kyle Edward Rowland was born on June 8, 1993 in Sacramento, California. One could almost say that Kyle has been playing the harmonica since birth; when he was just a baby, his father put a harmonica in his crib, which Kyle used his harmonica as a pacifier and teething ring.
Kyle’s first memories of playing the harmonica are when he would sit next to his father and listen to him play the harmonica for fun. When Kyle was 9 years old, his father heard harmonica music coming from the front yard. He was amazed to find Kyle playing the Blues. Later that very year, Kyle was sitting in front of a stage during the Sacramento Jazz Jubilee listening to “Mick Martin and The Blues Rockers”. Kyle quietly began to play along on his harmonica and when Mick heard Kyle playing he asked him to join the band onstage. This was the beginning of Kyle’s career in the Blues. Shortly after the festival, Kyle began taking lessons from Mick Martin. Kyle feels privileged to be learning from Mick, who is known as one of the best blues harmonica players in Northern California.
