Kyle Chadburn & the Earthbound Spirits

Soulful, bluesy rock & roll from the Green Mountains of Vermont

The Earthbound Spirits emerged in 2022 as a studio collective focused on recording original material by Vermont singer-songwriter Kyle Chadburn. Their material is a rich and organic mix of soulful, blues-oriented rock and Americana. Each of the members of the group is a veteran performer and studio musician, including Chadburn himself who has been writing, performing, and recording for over two decades.

Since their inception, The Earthbound Spirits have released three EPs of original material, each praised by local music journalists across Vermont. Their first live album, recorded with an in-studio audience at Tank Recording Studio in Burlington, Vermont, was released in 2025 and featured the improvisation and eclecticism that is typical of their live shows. The band released their newest studio project on May 1st, 2026. The album, "So Much Left to Show,"  features nine brand new original songs that showcase the range of the band's sound, from classic soul and R&B to bluesy rock and psychedelia!
