"What a great way to end the summer! Lots of fun in Brooklyn and Peach Fest was awesome, so much love for Gregg out there. In anticipation of the upcoming shows with KHB, here's the third and final track from my "Summer Sounds from the Lab" sessions, I hope you enjoy. Now it's off to New Mexico this week with KHB! Be on the look out for the new tunes on KHB tour!
"This is a song that KHB worked up in the new SCI Sound Lab. I grabbed Keith Moseley to help finish up the lyrics. It's a bit of a happy-end-of-summer tune. Yes...Sorry...Sometimes I write happy songs."
-Kyle

Hope you enjoy!
New Song Premiere: "Tumbling"
Hey everyone, I'm loving our new SCI Lab, lots of creativity percolating from here. SCI will be bringing more tunes soon, but in the meantime I wanted to release some new KHB tunes that originated from the lab. I snuck in and produced a few new sounds for summer.
"Tumbling" started out as a groove that was in need of becoming a song. It was one of those feels that I had done in the past, but with a more indie vibe to it. Lyrically it speaks of my first love and first loss all around a trip to the see The Grateful Dead in Pittsburgh. Sometimes I struggle to form a cohesive theme and groove, but this came together fairly easily and quickly. I like where this ended up, I hope you enjoy!

Kyle Facing Cat Juggling Charges
Following a string of incidents that have led to the arrest of Boulder, Colorado’s Kyle Hollingsworth, the famed keyboardist was detained on cat juggling charges. While details are still unfolding in what appears to be an extremely unusual circumstance, it remains clear that Hollingsworth will be behind bars for the foreseeable future, which may affect his summer tour plans.
At 2:15am on the morning of April 1st, Boulder Police responded to a disturbance call in a quiet South Boulder neighborhood. After a two-hour standoff and subsequent raid of the Boulder residence, a special Colorado Feline Tactical Team (CFTT) surrounded the compound and detained a number of suspects, most notably Mr. Hollingsworth. Although no other arrests have been made public, Boulder community rumors are swirling about possible accomplices with recent local sightings including Umphrey’s McGee keyboardist Joel Cummins and Big Gigantic drummer Jeremy Salken.
Local Boulder brewpub proprietor Kevin Daly commented, “I know nothing about this. See ya at Red rocks"
Currently held on $10 million bond in Boulder County Jail, Hollingsworth is scheduled for arraignment in Boulder County Court on Monday, April 4.
A statement from Hollingsworth’s management:
“We are deeply saddened to announce the arrest and incarceration of Kyle Hollingsworth. We vehemently deny any allegations of Kyle’s purported involvement in the infamous ‘Mile High Cat Juggling Ring.’ Cat juggling is a bizarre and unusual activity that Kyle, a cat-lover, has publicly and repeatedly denounced.”
“I denounce cat juggling.” –Kyle Hollingsworth (2010)

New Song: "Stuff"
Hey y'all, I've been working on some new music this spring leading up to summer festivals (like Kyle's Brew Fest)! Thought it would be fun to do a video for this brand new tune called "Stuff." The groove is fun, but the lyrics are kind of funny, so I wanted to showcase them a bit. It's a take on dating and living in our modern tech world, a bit of a cynical take on all the "stuff" that accumulates. Hope you enjoy!

Kyle Hollingsworth Sues Joel Cummins for Riff Infringement
In a feud that has gone unnoticed for nearly two decades, String Cheese Incident keyboardist Kyle Hollingsworth has finally decided to take on Joel Cummins, keyboardist of Umphrey’s McGee. Cummins’ blatant plagiarism has blurred lines between his own music and that of Hollingsworth. After Hollingsworth’s many friendly requests for Cummins to change his course of songwriting, it appears time Cummins has got to give it up.
This battle on the stage has turned into what is sure to become a battle in court.
