HOMEWARD BOUND
Titel: Homeward Bound
Release: November 12, 2021
Genre: Country
Homeward Bound will be released on November 12, 2021. The song is about a childhood memory. In the years I lived in Austria, I often saw a woman sitting on her front porch. In my experience, she was waiting for her husband, who was at work for days. With Homeward Bound I want to let people realize that work is not the most important thing in life, and that it is completely ok to be at home a little more often and/or think about yourself for once in awhile.

BIOGRAPHY
Kimmy June was born in 1994 in Waalwijk as Kim van der Gouw. When she was four, she discovered Ilse DeLange's first album "World of Hurt". From that moment on, her love for country music and singing and playing country songs was a fait accompli. The girl and guitar were inseparable. At the age of twelve, Kim emigrated with her parents to Austria and lived there for seven years. In Austria she developed herself further as a guitarist, and a series of self composed songs quickly followed. At the age of seventeen, she participated in the German talent show "Deutschland sucht den Superstar" and moved the jury to tears. Kimmy June's songs have a sound and phrasing that seamlessly matches the sound we know from Nashville with a unique Kimmy June scent to it.

In 2013, she moved back to the Netherlands and after pursing a degree in education, she started working as a German teacher while developing herself further as a composer and singer. Kimmy June breathes music and it'll always be the main goal in her life.
