Her vocal experience ranges from classical singing, musical theater, rock, and more. Additionally, Kylie has been playing and studying ukulele, most recently studying accompanying methods at WWU. Some of the most joy Kylie finds in making music is singing and playing ukulele in varying musical styles with others.
