“I’ve played with a lot of drummers and what I rarely see is real creativity. I believe that is Kyson's greatest strength. The ability to be creative, do something unique, and play something that fits the song. It is so fun! "
Rob Metcalf from TOWN!
“First and foremost, Kyson is an all around great human being. He is all heart, no ego… As a drummer it’s easy to just steamroll the rest of the band and just play chops but Kyson understands the importance of restraint.”
Andrew Ponson from Christian Life Center Utah
“I have worked on several songs with Kyson for some time now, and it is a relief to have connected with someone who brings detailed focus, professionalism and originality to each project. Kyson adapted quickly to an efficient work flow and I am looking forward to our continued collaboration.”
Keith Regan Carney— Singer/Songwriter
“What stands out most about Kyson, however, is his professionalism. He consistently arrives at rehearsals fully prepared, having already practiced and internalized his parts. This level of dedication and work ethic makes him a highly valuable asset in any studio environment.”
Tim Whipple from Moon Grove
