“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.”
