Kyle Patrick

Blasting out of the gates with his debut solo record, Kyle Patrick’s 5-track, self-titled EP is filled with infectious, fun hooks that showcase his powerful voice and knack for writing pop songs. The leadoff single, “Go For Gold!” released with a 3D music video and hit TOP 10 in multiple countries, holding #1 for consecutive weeks in Indonesia. The anthemic tune could also be heard on TV commercials for the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. “Follow Your Heartbeat”, an upbeat song with a worldly feel, won a 2013 Independent Music Award for Best Pop Song. “I want to surprise and inspire people, and I want to surprise myself,” says Kyle of his creative approach to the new album. The entire project was funded by his fans in partnership with PledgeMusic. He stays close to fans by including them in the record-making process with behind-the-scenes videos, photos, and rough recordings of brand new songs. “You are just as much a part of this as I am,” he tells his fans. Kyle debuted his record performing live on MTV Sessions, a brand new music series that showcases the work and lives of today’s top artists and introduces the stars of tomorrow. The show marked Kyle’s first performance as a solo artist and garnered excellent reviews and TV ratings alike. “At the recent MTV Sessions, Kyle Patrick impressed, wowed and blew the crowd away with his buffet of hits,” reported Teens (Singapore). The charismatic singer and multi-instrumentalist continued to wow audiences following MTV Sessions by opening for The Wanted on their Asia tour. “Kyle is well on his way to gaining undisputed recognition worldwide…,” wrote Cinema Online (Malaysia). To wrap up 2012, Kyle headlined Celebrate 2013, Singapore’s New Year’s Eve Countdown to a live crowd of 20,000 and broadcast to over 1 million TV viewers. As frontman of The Click Five, Kyle has sold over two million records with number-one singles in no less than eight countries. On their last tour, the band headlined sold-out arenas and performed with heavyweights like The Black Eyed Peas, One Republic, Gym Class Heroes, Panic! at the Disco and The Script. The Click Five also received MTV Asia’s Knockout Award as the band with the most influence on Asian youth culture. In addition to Kyle’s passion for music, he is committed to giving back to others. As a Celebrity Ambassador with MTV EXIT, Kyle performs at stadium-size concerts throughout South East Asia to raise awareness about human trafficking and exploitation. He visits shelters to meet trafficking survivors and hear their personal stories of survival. Kyle says, “They are by far the bravest people I’ve met in my life. They’ve seen the darkest of dark and if I can have a part in helping them forget that, even if it’s only for a few minutes while I’m playing a song for them, that’s a plus in my book and does make a difference.” --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RECENT HIGHLIGHTS // “Go For Gold!” (1st Single) -- #1 at Top 40 Radio (Indonesia) -- Top 10 at Top 40 Radio & TV (Multiple Countries) -- Music Video on heavy rotation: MTV Asia, Channel V and MYX Philippines -- #9 Music Video on MYX International Top 20 (Philippines) -- Nearly 1 Million Streams online -- Top 100 Songs of 2012: 987fm (Singapore’s #1 Hit Music Station) -- Single of the Day, Album of the Week & Top 100 Songs of 2012: Creative Disc (Indonesia’s Premiere Music Blog) -- 2012 Olympic & Paralympic Games TV Commercials (MediaCorp Channel 5 – Singapore’s #1 English TV Station) -- International Olympic Committee’s ‘Show Your Best’ Campaign finalist -- #2 Album on HMV International Pop / Rock Chart (Singapore) -- #10 Album on HMV International Chart (Singapore) // Featured on MTV Sessions // Opened for The Wanted on their Asia Tour (Indonesia, Malaysia) // 2013 Independent Music Awards: Best Pop Song, “Follow Your Heartbeat” // Featured on Glory Road, a CBS / Channel One News segment broadcast into 8,000 schools / 6 million students // TOPMAN Sponsorship // Headlined Celebrate 2013, Singapore’s New Year’s Eve Countdown for a live crowd of 20,000 & TV broadcast to 1 million+ (MediaCorp Channel 5 – #1 English TV Station) // Headlined Coca-Cola’s Kadayawan Festival for 30,000 (Davao City, Philippines) // Headlined MTV EXIT Road Show for 10,000 (Dumaguete, Philippines) // Musical Guest at the New Glorietta Vibe, a Guinness Book Record-Breaking fashion event (Manila, Philippines) // Multiple collaborations with Hitz.FM /JinnyboyTV (Malaysia’s #1 English Radio Station / Malaysia’s #1 Subscribed YouTube Channel) // 987fm’s ‘Rising Star’ August 2012 (Singapore’s #1 Hit Music Station) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- with THE CLICK FIVE // Four #1 & Six Top 10 Singles in multiple countries & 2 million+ records sold // Opened for The Black Eyed Peas & Hillary Duff // Headlined 2010 Youth Olympic Games // Supported Miranda Cosgrove (star of Nickelodeon’s iCarly) with background vocals, guitar & keyboard on “The Today Show” & Nickelodeon’s Kid’s Choice Awards // Performed for 40,000 at Phnom Penh Olympic Stadium // 2011 Asian TV Awards: Best Music Video Nomination for “Don’t Let Me Go” // 2008 MTV Asia Knockout Award Kyle Patrick is Endorsed by Gibson Guitars Artist / Writer / Producer
