Kyle Hollingsworth Band at Public House

Decades ago, Kyle Hollingsworth set out on a career in music. With a wealth ofdesire and an abundance of ability, Hollingsworth has established himself as aformidable and versatile music talent deftly able to contribute, collaborate,compose, and communicate on a number of levels and within a vast spectrum ofmusical environments.

Today, as a member of acclaimed jam masters The StringCheese Incident, Hollingsworth is revered by both peers and fans for his ability towrite and perform in a mosaic of styles, from rock to classical, ragtime to bebop.

Playing in SCI has allowed him unrestricted access to the world of music, and hasbestowed on him the kind of fearlessness a composer needs to flirt with suchdisparate genres.

Those who’ve seen SCI know that they canjerk from funk tobluegrass on a chord change. “In the jam world, where there are no set ways ofdoing things, we’re not afraid to move in and out of genres,” he says, “and because ofthat I’ve learned to be creative, not only onstage but in the studio. Ican get on boardwith somethingpretty quickly. You have to.”
