Dengan gaya musik sendiri, Kaki King mungkin saja dewa gitar berikutnya. Dia menyatukan tradisi kuno bekerja dengan tangan dan teknologi digital, memproyeksikan gambar ke gitarnya dalam proyek inovatif multimedia "The Neck Is a Bridge to the Body" (Leher adalah jembatan menuju tubuh). Menggunakan leher gitarnya seperti keyboard, dia memainkan melodi yang rumit dan membawa hadirin mengikuti perjalanan musik penuh cahaya dan suara. Ia menyebutnya "gitar sebagai kuas."

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Kaki King - GuitaristKaki King combines jaw-dropping guitar work with dreamy, searching songwriting.
Why you should listen
Kaki King's percussive technique (guitar geeks compare it to Preston Reed's; everyone else compares it to Eddie Van Halen's) drives her songs forward, while layers of overdubs and her own soft vocals create a shimmering cloud of sound.
King's work on the soundtrack for 2007's Into the Wild was nominated for a Golden Globe, along with contributors Michael Brook and Eddie Vedder. Her groundbreaking multimedia work The Neck Is a Bridge to the Body uses projection mapping to present the guitar as an ontological tabula rasa in a creation myth unlike any other.
