Description
Eddie Vedder gets a lot of the credit for the absolutely sublime soundtrack to Sean Penn's 2007 film Into the Wild. But the gorgeous and expansive guitar work that made the film transcendent comes by way of Kaki King. Her ringing acoustic guitar is capable of transporting and enchanting listeners, whether they're in a concert hall or listening through earbuds while trekking across some breathtaking landscape. Originally a drummer, King has mixed a number of flavors, from strings to bagpipes, into her half-dozen recordings. But onstage, it's usually just her and her fluid, expressive, spellbinding guitar playing. That's quite enough.
