Kyson is known for capturing recorded drum and percussion sounds that sit naturally in the mix and elevate the emotion of a song. He carefully selects and tunes each drum to fit the music—often building a unique, mismatched "Frankenkit" for each session. His lifelong drumming experience, along with his percussion studies at Utah Tech University under Dr. Glenn Webb and mentorship from drummers like Mike Johnston and Aaron Sterling, have helped him develop a reliable, expressive sound that serves the song above all. Today, he records from his studio in Layton, Utah, offering both remote drum tracks and in-person collaborations.
What sets Kyson apart is his ability to emotionally connect with a song. He doesn't just ask, "What beat would be cool here?"—he asks, "What is this song trying to say?" Whether in the studio or on stage, his goal is simple: serve the music and help people feel something real.
