   About The Backroad
We're friends...we make music and we travel.



"... some of the Backroad's songs - we particularly liked "Gone to Ohio" - made us feel 18 again... There were faint old-school Dylan echoes in some of the Backroad's songs, and a little Leonard Cohen too. "
- Who Will Kiss the Pig Blog/Brooklyn NY 2009


"Watching Kyle perform is like watching a true artist at work, as you just feel the song right down to your bones, and you realize that "this kid is the real deal!"
- Concert Promoter Jon Sten/October 2009
