"New music from an insightful Nashville tunesmith"

The 15-year musical journey that has led Kim Richey to her latest album, "Wreck Your Wheels," has been a dream run. Kim has released five critically acclaimed albums, has written two number-one and four top-ten hits. She has had her songs recorded by the likes of Trisha Yearwood, and sung on albums by Ryan Adams, Shawn Colvin, and Mary Chapin Carpenter. Her songs are beautifully crafted, irresistibly melodic, and often deep. Kim's sixth album, "Wreck Your Wheels," was recorded in Nashville with her touring band and was all about getting an organic, real sound: no auto-tune, no studio tricks -- just five musicians in a room, playing together. "The core band on this record went out on the road with me for my last record, 'Chinese Boxes,' and they are friends," says Kim. "We had a great time making the record –- we recorded all in the same room at the same time, which was very cozy. It's a small studio. We used the front seat of the producer's Honda pulled up next to the door as an isolation booth for the electric guitar amp." Kim's special guests for the evening will be the hot new bluegrass band NewFound Road.
