Bio

Hitchville has quickly solidified themselves among the upper echelon of regional talent.  Under the foundational leadership of dynamic lead vocalists Heidi Owens and Matthew Kneefe, the group’s trademark harmonies, down home personalities, and kinetic stage energy leads to an unforgettable live show in which the band has worked tirelessly to produce.

The group’s brand new, highly anticipated sophomore album “Soundtrack to Life” which includes their first iHeartRadio #1 single “Even When It’s Bad It’s Good”, also holds their new single “Love is the Road” which is already climbing the iHeartMedia charts.  This project has been 4 years in the making, with songs written by some of Nashville’s biggest hit-makers.  The band has also recently realized another big dream of theirs: to start their own country music and camping festival…and so it began!  The First Annual Hitchville Hootenanny took place in August, 2015 with some of the region’s most sought after talent and was a resounding success!  2016’s Hootenanny finished up again with an award winning lineup and as many memories and there were country music fans in attendance.

They trekked to Nashville in 2012 to record their self-titled debut release which spawned their first hit single “Whoop It Up”.  The song has since become an anthem that proves relevant to not just the summer months, as it garnered major market radio support year round, everywhere from the upper Midwest, to Florida, Texas, and Nashville.  The group’s second single “Fly” hit radio soon afterwards, and can still be frequently heard (as well as “Whoop It Up”) in between innings at Minnesota Twins’ home games at Target Field in Minneapolis.  Hitchville’s third single, “I’ll Be Right There”, penned by multi Grammy winner Ben Glover, also received rave reviews once it hit the air, and remains a crowd favorite at their live shows.  In their time together, Hitchville has graced the main stages of some of the region’s largest festivals, including Moondance Jammin’ Country, Country Fest, Country Jam, Ramble Jam, and 4 years straight at the biggest country music and camping festival in the nation, WE Fest.  They have been blessed to open those stages for some of the biggest superstars in country…from Carrie Underwood and Rascal Flatts, to Kenny Chesney, Toby Keith, and Luke Bryan, to Big & Rich, Sugarland, Zac Brown Band, and Blake Shelton.  The band has even recently returned from their second consecutive headlining concert in the form of a huge beach party for Miller Lite and the NFL’s Minnesota Vikings at the Hard Rock Hotel in Cancun, Mexico.

Over the past few years, fans have come to know to expect the unexpected at a Hitchville show.  There’s really only one place where the beer is always cold, the people are always friendly, the music is always world class, and the energy is always palpable…they’d like to welcome everybody home… to Hitchville.
