Biography
Kimmie Rhodes is a Singer-songwriter from Austin, Texas. Kimmie’s multi-platinum selling songs have been recorded by such stellar acts as Willie Nelson, Wynonna Judd, Trisha Yearwood, Amy Grant, CeCe Winans, Joe Ely, John Farnham, Waylon Jennings, Peter Frampton, Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris. A creative and prolific artist, she has recorded and released a total of twelve solo CDs, written and produced three musical plays and a catalogue of hundreds of songs, and published a book.
she grew up in Lubbock, Texas and began her singing career at the age of six with her family gospel trio. She moved to Austin in 1979, where she met DJ and producer Joe Gracey, an instrumental figure in the Austin progressive country scene, who she eventually married. In 1981 she recorded her first album, “Kimmie Rhodes and the Jackalope Brothers” when Willie Nelson invited her to use his studio. In 1985 she recorded her second album, “Man In the Moon”. Her third album “Angels Get The Blues”, recorded at the original Sun Studio in Memphis, was released in 1989. These records led to a series of British and European tours which received rave reviews. Kimmie’s 1998 CD release is a compilation of original songs from these three albums called “Jackalopes, Moons & Angels”. This Jackalope Records release marks the first time these songs have been available on CD in one collection.

I think she deserves to be much better known. I was lucky enough to catch her live in '08 in the UK.
