KYLE EASTWOOD Quintet
Jazz
•
1h 36m
The music of Million Dollar Baby, Letters from Iwo Jima, Gran Torino or Invictus, it was him! Son of the great Clint, Kyle Eastwood not only inherited from his illustrious father the love of cinema, but also and above all that of jazz.
Growing up in Carmel, CA, Kyle Eastwood has fond memories of long bus rides to school listening to the pop hits of the 70s, which sparked an early passion for rock and roll. When he was at home, though, it was all about jazz blues and R&B, as his parents, actor/director Clint Eastwood and Maggie Johnson, filled their home with Miles Davis, Dave Brubeck, Stan Getz, Ray Charles and the Big Band music of Duke Ellington and Stan Kenton.
As the son of a film icon whose love of jazz is as legendary as his work onscreen and behind the scenes, Kyle developed a lifelong passion for both art forms, which in turn has fuelled his rise as a world renowned bassist, prolific and eclectic recording artist, international touring bandleader/performer and ASCAP Award winning, Golden Globe nominated film composer in his own right.
Cast: Kyle Eastwood (Double Bass), Andrew Mc Cormack (Piano), Quentin Collins (Trumpet), Chris Higginbottom (Drums), Brandon Allen (Saxophones)
