Growing up as the son of Hollywood icon Clint Eastwood must have been quite a production. Jazz was always a part of the Eastwood household. Kyle's first memory of playing was when Clint taught him how to play the left hand bass line of Boogie Woogie while he played the right hand solo over the top. Having dabbled on electric bass as a teenager, he now also plays the upright, acoustic and double bass. Kyle says, "My roots remain in jazz but I like adding all kinds of different flavors."
In addition to his three albums, Kyle has composed music for the Academy Award winning films, "Mystic River" (2003) and "Million Dollar Baby" (2004), as well as blockbusters "Flags of Our Fathers," "Letters from Iwo Jima," and "Gran Torino."

The Orpheum Theater opened in 1913 as a vaudeville house and seats just under 700 (originally seating 1000). The elegant and beautifully preserved theatre served in this capacity until 1954, when the Community Playhouse group acquired the Orpheum for its home.
