Kyle John Paradillo Echarri (born June 20, 2003) is a Filipino-American singer and actor. He first gained recognition as a semi-finalist in the second season of the talent competition show The Voice Kids in 2015. Echarri released his debut album It's Me Kyle the following year and later branched into acting on screen and stage. His popularity increased for his role in the melodrama series Kadenang Ginto (2018) and has received various accolades including a Box Office Entertainment Award and a Star Award for Music, including nominations for three Awit Awards.

Echarri was born in Orange County, California. His family moved to Cebu City, Philippines, in June 2014. He is the son of Jose Echarri and Marie Paradillo. His father is of Basque descent.

Echarri rose to prominence with his first television appearance at the age of eleven when he joined season 2 of The Voice Kids, where he reached the Top 6 under Sarah Geronimo's team. Just six seconds into his blind audition, while singing One Direction's "Night Changes", coaches Bamboo Mañalac and Sarah Geronimo turned for the then 11-year-old Cebuano footballer, who chose to be part of Team Sarah.

Echarri released his first full-length studio album, It's Me Kyle, on August 26, 2016, under MCA Music, a Universal Music Group company in the Philippines. His carrier single, "Fall For Me" peaked at Number 4 on Myx's Pinoy MYX Countdown and remained on the charts for more than 14 weeks.

The Philippine Daily Inquirer compared his talents to those of Justin Bieber.

In 2018, Echarri joined Star Pop, Star Music's record sublabel targeting a younger market. He released the single "Pangako," which was soon followed by a music video. He first performed the song live at the MYX Music Awards 2018 held at the Araneta Coliseum and launched it on radio through MOR 101.9. The single quickly entered the daily top hits survey, MOR Pinoy Biga10, and remained on the charts for weeks. Following the success of "Pangako," he released his second album EP, Kyle Echarri, on October 13, 2018.

Echarri became a member of the teen pop group ASAP G!, alongside Isabela Vinzon, Jayda Avanzado, Ylona Garcia, Jeremy Glinoga, and Darren Espanto. The group was formed on June 3, 2018, and disbanded in November 2018 when the show was reformatted into ASAP Natin 'To.

In 2019, the Gold Squad members debuted their first album under Star Music, titled The Gold Squad - EP. The album consisted of five tracks, including their dance craze song "Halo Halo." They also released four new music videos, including a new video for Echarri's breakout hit song "Pangako," featuring his on-screen partner Francine Diaz.
