Kyle Eastwood Band

Kyle Eastwood grew up in Carmel, California, as the eldest son of actor Clint Eastwood.

As a child he listened to records of jazz stars such as Duke Ellington, Count Basie and Miles Davis playing in the house.

His father had been attending the Monterey Jazz Festival since it began in 1958 and when his children were born it became a yearly family outing. Kyle's childhood had jazz as its soundtrack and he credits his father with introducing him to the joys of the bass line.
