Kim was raised in Blackfoot, Idaho, the daughter of a well known stunt pilot and crop duster Don Novas and his wife Clarice.

Kim has a BA degree in musical theater from Brigham Young University. She has recently appeared in five made for TV movies, "Nothing Lasts Forever" "Unforgivable" and "The Face of Evil" to mention a few. Kim played the lead in two well known musicals, "Saturday's Warrior" and "My Turn On Earth" the latter of which toured the US and Canada for two years resulting in 200 performances. She has also appeared in many other stage productions such as "Oklahoma", "Fiddler on the Roof", "When the Saints go Marching" and so on.

Before commitments took Kim back to Utah, she lived in Nashville, TN for seven years learning the music business and singing on demos and background vocals for other artists and album projects. In1998, Universal Sound Records released three great tracks on Kim, on the album "Three Times the Country II" which received a great deal of attention and exposure world wide for Kim, and everyone wanted a full solo album from her. Now, this long awaited album is finished and dedicated to the memory of her late Father.

Kim has already seen success in the EMS European charts with the title track, "Blue Skies Over Georgia", a song co-penned by frequent visitor to the U.K, Mark Mosley who many will probably know, married Marie Lester, a singer from the Liverpool area here in the U.K. The song, one of two tracks from Mark on the album, is a catchy two stepper that reached #14 in March of 2002.

The other Mark Mosley penned track on here is "Everybody's Talkin'", …….not to be confused with the one by Nillson on the Midnight cowboy soundtrack………a mid-paced two-stepper, co-written with Marie Lester about a couple going through a bad patch….."Everybody's talkin', except for me and you."

For me, the big stand out track on the album is "How Are You." Penned by Bruce Howes, the song is a very catchy 4/4 shuffle that's very difficult to keep your feet still to. This one is guaranteed plenty airtime on Metro Country. Great!!

Also on here is a track previously released by Kim on the aforementioned "3 Times The Country" compilation. "Big Bad Wolf" is a country rocker co-penned by noted songwriter Russell Smith of the 'Amazing Rhythm Aces.'

Kim has a very appealing voice and with the help of some first class musician's like, Troy Lancaster on Guitar, Larry Franklin' and Hoot Hester on Fiddle and Mandolin, Danny Parks and Curt Ryle on Acoustic Guitars to name just a few, plus T Jae Christian of the highly respected Universal Sound Records producing, I'm sure that with "Blue Skies Over Georgia" Kim has an album that will please her many fans who have been patiently waiting for this moment.
