Harken to a night of whiskey drinking in a cabin among the pines, King Kyote echoes the yells of Rock & Roll’s fore-bearers while having a deeply rooted harmony with the Blues, Roots-Rock & Indie-Americana genres. A force to be reckoned with on stage, Kyote’s fiery live shows prove that pure raw talent combined with real, honest songwriting is still the future of today’s music.
Hailing from the Maine coast, King Kyote’s sound and inspiration come from how he views and interprets the world around him. He expresses himself through a unique lens—like a photograph, putting pen to paper capturing life’s most delicate and bold moments. The ability to draw creative power from the waves he rides and mountains he climbs gives Kyote a distinct perspective on the intertwines of the vagabond troubadour and the artist.
Over the last five years, King Kyote has firmly established himself as a standout artist, garnering attention as one of the prominent figures to keep an eye on in the northeast. Kyote represented his home state of Maine on NBC’s American Song Contest with his song “Get Out Alive” which was released on Atlantic Records in March of 2022. King Kyote has shared stages with legendary artists, including Taj Mahal, Molly Tuttle & The Golden Highway, The Record Company, Houndmouth, and Robert Randolph & The Family Band.
“I like the way he holds his own, his vocal tone and his penmanship”- Snoop Dogg
Since the release of King Kyote's debut album in September 2025 and extensive touring over the last year, King Kyote's live performances have become one of the hottest shows in the folk/rock americana scene.
