Kimmie Rhodes Dreams of Flying CD presents all new originals and a classic duet with her fellow Lubbockite Joe Ely. This group of songs takes us on a poetic voyage from dark to light, longing to hope, grounded to flight in Kimmie’s unforgettably personal yet universal style, ranging from dramatic dreaming to soulful playfulness. Dreams of Flying features an intriguing all-star cast of musicians: Charlie Sexton (Bob Dylan), John Gardner (The Dixie Chicks, Jesse Winchester, James Taylor) and Mike Thompson (Eagles). Produced by virtuoso multi-instrumentalist Gabriel Rhodes, this recording also includes a song written by his brother Jeremie Rhodes and the CD jacket artwork features stunning photographs by one of America’s most celebrated artists, Kate Breakey.

Uncut Review of ‘Miracles On Christmas Day’

k1mmE — Fri, 31 Dec 2010 16:43:34 +0000

Here’s a great review of ‘Miracles On Christmas Day’ from Uncut –

“Given that Willie Nelson, Emmylou Harris and Rodney Crowell have all likened her to an angel (both in voice and spirit), it’s only fitting that Texan songwriter Kimmie Rhodes should release the suitably seraphic Miracles On Christmas Day (three stars, Sunbird Records). It’s all downy and delicate, with Rhodes’ balmy tones floating over guitars, mandolin, cello and, yes, aglassharp. There’s a host of heavenly help to hand, too, most notably from son Gabriel (naturally) and former Bowie/Iggy percussionist Hunt Sales. Over-sweet at times maybe, but ultimately uplifting. Rhodes new LP, Dreams Of Flying, is due in the Spring.”
