Kyle Shirk, a young artist from Newtown, Connecticut, has quickly captured attention with his debut single, “Tears in Paradise.” Now based in Los Angeles, Kyle’s journey to music wasn’t a straight path. Originally focused on sports, he was pursuing a lacrosse scholarship in New York when the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted his senior year of high school. This unexpected pause gave Kyle the space to rediscover his love for music and take the leap into songwriting and performing.
His debut single, “Tears in Paradise,” is not just a song; it’s a message of resilience and a call to pursue one’s passions despite life’s obstacles. Set to a moving piano melody with uplifting percussion, the track embodies the struggle and beauty of chasing dreams. Influenced by artists like Benson Boone, Hans Williams, and Harry Styles, Kyle’s sound brings together storytelling and catchy hooks that linger long after the music stops.
With “Tears in Paradise” as the opening chapter of his music career, Kyle Shirk is only getting started. He has plans to continue releasing music that captures life’s ups and downs with his own unique voice.
