Kile Atwater (pronounced like Kyle) is an American singer-songwriter, recording
artist and actor born in Atlanta, GA on July 18th, 1991. Kile spent most of his life in
Houston, TX, where he began performing. Currently, Kile resides in New York City and will release an EP titled STAND CLEAR OF THE CLOSING DOORS, which will showcase his vast musical influences, abilities and life experiences.

As a singer Kile began recording in May 2011 after being contacted by record producer TeV95 who discovered Atwater via a YouTube video of the young singer performing a cover of the Beatles song "Oh Darling". Influenced by a wide of array of musical genres, Kile has quickly developed his artistry and song writing abilities recording a unique sound of pop, and alternative music with an inspirational message.

As an actor Kile has trained at: Tisch School of The Arts High School Program, and The New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts. Regional theatre credits include: The Dentist in Little Shop of Horrors, and leading roles in the plays: The Boys Next Door, Check Please, and The Diviners. Kile has been in independent films since he was sixteen. Most recently he can be seen on the television show Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and How to Make it in America. He is currently working on a Screenplay and acting in another independent film called The Art Machine.

The development of his unique style is a direct result of the powerful effect music has had on his life. Growing up in a single parent household, his sound was shaped primarily by his mother, who played everything from Lauryn Hill and Stevie Wonder, to The Beatles and Mariah Carey. Atwater grew a passion for performing at a young age, often singing in run-down venues in Texas from just 9 years old. He was actively involved in theater and music in school, staying after school for hours for play and choir rehearsals, using his talent as an escape from a less-then-stable home environment.

In 2009, at the age of 17, Atwater was accepted into the prestigious New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts--a school for theater and film. He moved to New York City on his own with very little money in his pocket. Determined to stay focused, he studied the craft of acting daily but he often missed classes to attend auditions. After a year in the program, Atwater was let go from the program because of poor attendance. Though having the option to go back home, he chose to stay in New York, working odd jobs to make ends meat. He also continued auditioning.

Atwater is currently writing and recording regularly with music producer TeV95 while continuing his acting career. Kile Atwater will be performing throughout New York City and promoting his current EP STAND CLEAR OF THE CLOSING DOORS.
