Modern Yesterdays: Kaki King

Modern Yesterdays: Kaki King

Considered one of the most unique and influential guitarists of our time, Kaki King continues to deconstruct and redefine the role of solo instrumental artists through virtuoso technique, insatiable imagination and boundless humanity. Her now-signature multimedia performance, both provocative and moving, uses projection mapping to present the guitar as a tool that can shape both music and video content, all triggered (and often improvised live) via her Ovation Adamas Signature six-string acoustic guitar, customized specifically for her multimedia performance.

Hailed by Rolling Stone as “a genre unto herself,” King has released nine albums and toured extensively, presenting in such prestigious arts centers as the Kennedy Center, MoMA, LACMA, The Met and Smithsonian Design Museum. She also has created music for numerous film and TV soundtracks.
