Kimmie Rhodes' new CD is here!
Windblown, featuring all new original
songs by Kimmie, paints a poignant picture in song of a young woman who
has exiled herself to the wilderness of the Texas Big Bend in a
struggle to escape the sorrows of her bordertown life and the bad
choices she has made. With exceptional performances by legendary
players like Lloyd Maines, John Gardner, Richard Bowden, and Gabe
Rhodes, this CD takes us back to Kimmie's West Texas roots to explore
the drama of love and death on the border. Windblown also serves as the
soundtrack to a new Kimmie Rhodes performance art piece, a stage
production featuring interpretive dance performed to live music with
award-winning actor Joe Sears serving as narrator for the story and
playing a variety of legendary “spirits of the desert”. The world
premier was January 21st, 2005. Produced by Gabe Rhodes, Windblown
explores more of the rich world of Kimmie's lyrical, musical, and now
dramatic vision.
