Kyle Emerson with Horace Greene
November 15, 2018 @ 8:00 pm
Denver’s Kyle Emerson is joined by Oshkosh’s Horace Greene for a night of high powered tunes at Gibson Music Hall.
$10 suggested donation at the door.
Folk rock guitarist and singer-songwriter Kyle Emerson broke out with his debut EP, ‘Worth It’, in May of 2017. With that first release, Emerson has quickly become one of Denver’s most promising talents. Mixing swift finger-picking, breathy vocals, and tell-all-lyrics, Emerson tight ropes a blend of the harmonious folk rock of the 60’s with a twist of modern sonics.
On his debut full-length, ‘Dorothy Alice’ (via Guilty Pleasure Records), Emerson showcases a poise and maturity for the craft of songwriting far beyond his years.
Having opened for artists over the years such as Charles Bradley, The Districts, Jeff the Brotherhood, La Luz, Twin Peaks, Israel Nash, Anderson East, Wild Child and more, Emerson continues to solidify his presence as an artist on the rise.
“… a scoop of Ryley Walker, a sprinkle of Elliott Smith – that’s different and gripping enough to peg Emerson as Denver’s next artist to watch.” – Denver Post
“The album is a blend of rich psychedelic folk that couples the trippy, dripping harmonies of early Beach Boys (See: “Dorothy Alice”) with the pop sensibilities of The Beatles’ more far-out tracks (See “Post Egomania”)…he is able to tackle some far-reaching soundscapes and open a bevy of psychedelic doors, while also keeping the album light, approachable and captivating” – Marquee Magazine
