Band History:
Since 1979, Kim has performed in bands ranging in size from duos to 16-piece swing bands, and in genres including rock, folk, country, jazz, blues, r&b, funk, fusion, hip hop, Calypso, and Carolina beach music. She has played on the same bill with notables including Billy Joe Royal, Beth Nielsen Chapman, and the original Cheap Trick, and her band mates have included former members of Gladys Knight's band, P-Funk, and The Drifters.
In 1996 Kim took a break from the live performance, but she continued writing and adding to her catalog of original music. In January 2000 she released the self-produced CD, "dreams & memories", a collection of short songs she wrote between 1979 and 1994, reflecting her folk rock and jazz roots. In March 2002 Kim returned to the stage, playing her own music, as a solo act. She has a backlog of new material to be included on a project slated for the future.
(Kim studied voice at the University of Alabama, and music theory and jazz at Auburn University, where she earned a Bachelor of Music degree with concentration in jazz studies in 1989. Kim also earned a Master of Business Administration degree from Auburn University at Montgomery in 1996. Born and raised in Montgomery, Alabama, Kim has also resided in Tuscaloosa, Auburn, and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The Atlanta, Georgia area has been her home since 1996.)
