Hailing from Vancouver, Kyle Richardson is an emerging Canadian artist who is igniting the music scene with his charismatic pop magic. Having written with several vocalists including Carly Rae Jepsen, DYLN, and Garrett Neiles, his music has been featured on TV shows such as Degrassi: The Next Generation and The L.A. Complex

In October, Richardson unveiled his debut album, Louder Than Words, an 11-track playlist offering a mix of songs that draw from a range of influences but are still tied to a distinctly pop vibe that is engaging and uplifting. Instead of chasing trends, Richardson is focused on heartfelt lyrics, soaring melodies, and true-to-life storytelling.
