Kyle Eastwood, the son of Hollywood-legend and jazz-fan Clint Eastwood, is an accomplished jazz-bassist in his own right. Growing up on the Monterey Peninsula he was exposed to jazz-music from his early youth on (meeting jazz-stars as Miles Davis, Sarah Vaughan and many more in person at the Monterey Jazz Festival). Eastwood starting playing the guitar in his early teens but turned to the bass when he was 18 - first the electric bass and later the double bass. By the age of 23 he led his own band "West Quintet". In his career he played in many outfits as studio musician, backing pop singers and recording film scores - among them the soundtrack to "Unforgiven". In 1998 he released "From There To Here" - his debut recording as a leader for Sony Music. Kyle Eastwood lives in New York, with his wife, Spanish actress Laura Gomez and their daughter Graylen.
