Kyle Keller is the Americana/folk artist you wish you had discovered sooner. His rolling melodies and potent lyrics will leave you questioning every moment since you last heard his growling bass vocals. Kyle’s self-described “sad songs” are raw, unfiltered, and distinctly relatable. His ability to take you on a discovery of emotion through story-telling is entirely unrivaled.
“Kyle Keller is that kind of folk artist that is actually worthy of the name. He is a communicator, a story teller, and a prophet of sorts. He approaches songs in the same way as every good folk and blues singer of old, with a message. I have had the joy of following Kyle over the last few years, and I have seen him blossom into one of the finest young lyricists that I know. I travel to songwriter events all over this country, and to find a poet of his caliber is rare… not to mention a poet of his age. Kyle has a voice that reminds me of the great Townes Van Zandt. Not in its tone, but in the way that it fits his material. Kyle has developed a style around his voice. That is not easy to do. His writing is reminiscent of John Moreland’s, but with the heart of Dylan. It is emotional, and confrontational. It speaks to today. It is current. It is important. He is like a modern Guthrie, and it would behoove you to acquaint yourself with his art.” -Abe Partridge
The Great American Highway is a traveler’s record and a road record if there ever was one… The album is filled with important little affirmations about being yourself and following your heart, regardless of the often superficial or adverse outcomes, with the most important thing being that you endure and hold onto yourself, at least until you die with a life fulfilled from following your purpose. There are also some important ruminations on the nature of time and not allowing oneself to waste it by doing things you don’t want to do… Kyle Keller invokes the most severe aspects of Hank Williams and Edgar Allan Poe in the pretty devastating “This Town’s Gonna Swallow You Whole.” Then he takes it even further in the final song on the album about losing someone you love, “Why Would God Steal?” Overall, this is a moody and gloomy work, though one that searches and yearns for inner peace, while also conferring and appreciation for life’s bounties and discovery. 8/10″ –Kyle “Trigger” Coroneos, Saving Country Music
