s circa ‘62 mixed with a dash of California coastal weirdness in a mod-inspired dreamscape. Kimmi Bitter is a paradox that echoes the traditions of classic country, yet feels like it's breaking all the rules at once. A rising force in the underground Americana scene she's mixing the old school with the new cool by capturing the attention of music fans and critics alike.
Kimmi’s debut Old School stormed in at Top 25 on the Americana Album Radio Chart, ruled the Alt-Country Specialty Charts for four weeks straight, and scooped eight nominations (three wins) including an Album of the Year nod alongside Sierra Ferrell and Billy Strings. Her singles “Aquamarine” and “Cowboy Kind of Girl” grabbed back-to-back Song of the Year at the 2024 & 2025 San Diego Music Awards, and she’s already racked up four more nominations (plus two wins) for 2025. Toss in shout-outs from Americanafest, Whiskey Riff’s Top Debut Albums, and Billboard’s Must-Hear New-Country list, and it’s clear: Kimmi’s only just warming up.Joining her onstage are Reno’s own Westside Twang, the high-energy, honky-tonk-meets-desert-rock crew known for their gritty riffs and dance-floor-ready grooves.

ABOUT
Words of Concrete was founded in 2009 in the Saxon capital of Dresden and consists of singer Rob, guitarist Schofi, bassist Marv and drummer Kilian.
Shortly after the band was founded in 2010, "New Kidz on the Block" was released as a split CD with Delusions of Lunacy, which was released via BDHW Records. After a change to One Life One Crew Records, the debut album "East German Cold" was released. Two years later, the second album "Between Home and Hell" followed, before the band took a forced break in 2014 for personal reasons.
In 2017 they returned to BDHW and released the music video "Ghettobeat 2.0" from the upcoming album "Negative Vibes" (spring 2018) at the end of the year.

It's been a wild ride. The Slap Frost Tour was conceived by 3 friends in a garage in Richmond, California in 2014. Originally the goal was to get out of the greater San Francisco Bay Area to share the collective talents of a battle tested, veteran DJ, a reformed wordsmith and an exceptional entertainer. After the inaugural 12 city run throughout 7 states, True Justice, Vocab Slick and Z-Man realized this independent "rap vacation" could be a platform not only for established acts but for up and coming talent who have never been on tour before. In the subsequent years the Slap Frost Tour has traveled to 110 cities and 45 states producing a decade of incredible performances.2025 brings us the 10th and Final Slap Frost Tour

Chris has been playing guitar since the age of eight, and involved with music on and off his whole life. Whether working on solo projects, playing in bands, or writing and recording, it is the home to which he’s most often returned. Since moving to Reno a couple of years ago, music has taken a back seat as Chris has been preoccupied with building a business, developing a new invention and skiing… a lot of skiing. But now, as so many times before, music is calling him home once more!
