The first woman ever to be named a “Guitar God” by Rolling Stone Magazine, Kaki King is one of the most in-demand guitarists today, captivating audiences and stealing the show at festivals from Bonnaroo to the Newport Folk Festival.
Her sonic style, a hybrid of rock and folk, is a mix of both instrumental and breathy vocals that showcase an impressive range of songwriting and technical guitar mastery.
Using a combination of fret-tapping, slap bass, percussive beats on the guitar, and unusual, but precise, tuning she has developed a distinctive sound that has garnered her and ever-increasing following and widespread critical acclaim.
King has performed music for such movies as Into the Wild and Twilight and produced four solo albums, the most recent of which is titled Dreaming of Revenge. -- www.cityofstoughton.com
