Kim Richey

Two-time Grammy®-nominated Kim Richey is a country singer-songwriter. She’s attracted top-shelf genre-definers – Jason Isbell, Trisha Yearwood, Chuck Prophet, My Morning Jacket’s Carl Broemel, Wilco’s Pat Sansone – for her critically-lauded projects. She has also sung on records for Isbell, Ryan Adams, Shawn Colvin, and Rodney Crowell. Yearwood’s truculently groove-country “Baby, I Lied” earned Richey her first Grammy nomination; her second was for co-writing Radney Foster’s hit “Nobody Wins.” Glimmer, her third album, was one of TIME’s Top Records of 1999. Her fourth album, Rise, was named People’s Best Alt-Country Record of 2002.

“Richey entices you with sad and unembellished music that reveals an original spirit, and then she ensnares you for keeps by making you consider all the noiseless sensations that no songs can ever contain.” -Billboard Magazine
