KYLE ROUSSEL is a dynamic example of a modern New Orleans musician forging his own path while collaborating with a variety of musical masters. A graduate of the famed New Orleans Center for Creative Arts (NOCCA) and the University of New Orleans (UNO), Kyle began playing the piano at age nine; studying classical music before moving on to perform in church and explore jazz in his teenage years.
These days, Kyle is equally adept in the worlds of jazz, classical, funk, gospel, rhythm and blues, and rock; his diverse influences shaping his personal musical identity and providing inspiration at every turn. He currently performs all around the US, with some engagements taking him around Europe, Asia, South America, Australia, and Africa with stalwarts such as Irma Thomas, Jon Batiste, Tyler Perry, Christian Scott, The Headhunters, Terence Blanchard, Lauren Daigle, Tank and the Bangas, The Preservation Hall Jazz Band, John Boutte, Kermit Ruffins, The Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Donald Harrison Jr., Herlin Riley, Delfeayo Marsalis, Victor Goines, Shannon Powell, James Rivers, Bonerama, Glen David Andrews, Jeff Tain Watts, Davell Crawford, Kenny Neal, Erica Falls, Mia Borders, Topsy Chapman, Roland Guerin, Khris Royal and Wendell Brunious.
Hot on the heels of his new solo album, "NOLA à la Mode," released in March of 2023, one thing is clear to anyone who is paying attention: Kyle Roussel has only just begun to leave his mark on the world of music. His solo concerts have listeners enraptured as if a full band was present.

TONIGHT, Kyle presents one of his lauded solo concerts in Tribute to our late, great keys wizards, Professor Longhair (Fess) and James Booker (Bayou Maharaja), whose birthdays are just days apart this week, on December 19th and 17th, respectively.
