KYLE ROWLAND * NOT HOLDING BACK ! *




Kyle Rowland

Kyle Rowland powers through the reeds of a Harmonica, honoring the rich traditions of American rhythm & blues, soul, and gospel.  Rowland quickly and naturally developed his own sound, with help from a few of his heroes such as James Cotton, Lazy Lester, Hubert Sumlin, Billy “Boy” Arnold, Matt “Guitar” Murphy, Henry Gray, Charlie Musselwhite,  and many others. Through these pioneers, Rowland learned specific techniques of stage presence, the music business, and several highly revered harmonica secrets, evident in his performances. In August of 2022, Rowland signed an endorsement deal with Hohner harmonica company, which he has proudly used for his 20+ year career. Recently with the help of Hohner, Rowland has had the opportunity to teach the harmonica to hundreds of children across the United States, Mexico, and Cuba. In 2024, he was inducted as the youngest member into the Sacramento Blues Hall of Fame, where he began his musical journey at the age of 10. In both 2024 and 2025, Rowland placed as a simi-finalist in the International Blues Challenge, in Memphis Tennessee.  In Spring of 2025, Rowland signed with Little Village Foundation, a California based record label, and will begin to record his latest record in May, produced by Rick Estrin. Don’t miss out on an opportunity to see this show!
