Remembering Kitty Wells: The Queen of Country Music All-Star Tribute

(2911) Heart of Texas Records is excited to release Remembering Kitty Wells: The Queen of Country Music through StarVista Music today. Celebrating the incredible career of Kitty Wells, this project includes artists Loretta Lynn, Wanda Jackson, Rhonda Vincent, The Whites, Dottsy, Norma Jean, Jan Howard, and more. Wells achieved several historic firsts in country music as the first solo female country artist to reach number one on the charts and the first woman in the genre to sell over a million records.

"Kitty Wells set the gold standard for female vocalists in country music," said Tracy Pitcox, President of Heart of Texas Records. "Our artists were eager to pay tribute to this trailblazer who paved the way for so many. Remembering Kitty Wells came together as a heartfelt project, driven by her fans and fellow musicians who wanted to celebrate the "Queen of Country Music."

Recognized as the sixth most successful female vocalist in Billboard country chart history, Wells was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1976. By 1991, she became only the third country music artist, following Roy Acuff and Hank Williams, and the eighth woman to be honored with the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. Her impact on country music earned her the title of the "Queen of Country Music." Check out the album here.
