Centered around the vein of old-school country with a touch of the swinging sixties, Kimmi Bitter and the Westside Twang are here to transport you on a retro journey into the year 1962 through their nostalgic songs. “The future of classic country is Kimmi Bitter,” as Saving Country Music boldly states. Effortlessly navigating through Countrypolitan ballads in her mod wardrobe and love of white boots, Bitter has drawn strong comparisons to Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn, and Nancy Sinatra.
Creating a buzz from her grassroots efforts and vigorous touring, her debut album “Old School” hit the ground running in 2024 landing on the Top 25 Americana Album Radio Chart and has garnered three separate song nominations to date. Tracks like the tear-jerking ballad “My Grass is Blue” have grown comparisons of time when Patsy Cline and The Jordanaires overtook radiowaves. Saving Country Music called it “solid country gold,” nominating it for Single of the Year alongside the likes of Charley Crockett and Sierra Ferrell. Though driving her career independently, she is no stranger to building her accolades.
“Aquamarine” took home Song of the Year at the 2024 San Diego Music Awards alongside fellow nominees Jason Mraz, P.O.D., Slightly Stoopid, and Thee Sacred Souls. Additionally, her breakout album skyrocketed to #1 on the Alt. Country Specialty Charts for four consecutive weeks. She’s a San Diego Music Award winner for Best Country/Americana Artist, with “My Grass is Blue” snagging another Song of the Year nod in 2023. Regarding her live performance, she was notably coined one of the “biggest musical takeaways” at Nashville’s most recent Americanafest.
