Kyle Wood was the mandolin player and co-lead vocalist with newgrass dynamo Crucial Smith (Nashville). In the 1990s/early 2000s, Crucial Smith played Telluride, Winfield, the IBMA, etc. Their two fine studio cd's - Crucial Smith (1997), and Morning Light (1999) - were produced by legendary guitarist/producer Pat Flynn (of New Grass Revival fame).

Kyle’s new album's format will be Americana/Indie rock and appeal to anyone who appreciates newgrass, alt country, indie, singer/songwriter, and classic rock music.

With his powerful and emotive high lead vocals, superb harmony singing, high-energy mandolin work, and singer/songwriter sensibilities, look for Kyle's new mandolin collection later in 2010. It will feature his Crucial Smith bandmate, multi-instrumentalist Dave "Doc" Holladay, and exciting guest artists!

One greatly anticipated highlight of the new cd will be the reworked "Cry", Kyle's signature song with Crucial Smith, as a dynamic Americana/country rock anthem!

Update - June, 2010: Kyle's new album is almost completely written with most songs fully arranged and recorded. Four songs - including both "Cry" and a beautiful mandolin instrumental are ready for mastering.
