KAKI KING CONTINUES to chart new sonic territory, using unique methods to create electrifying acoustic music and transfer theatrical stage concepts to the studio. Guitar Player’s December 2017 cover story about King reflected the future-cool aesthetic from The Neck Is a Bridge to the Body, her groundbreaking multimedia show in which visuals, triggered by her guitar playing, are projected onto a white custom version of her signature Ovation Adamas. Guitar Player Presents helped promote her performance at the fabulous Freight & Salvage in Berkeley, California, and it was truly mind-blowing to witness the manifestation of King’s sonic vision. After touring the show, she went back to the drawing board to come up with Data Not Found, an even more ambitious production that once again starred the guitar. Data Not Found debuted in November 2019 and was scheduled for a huge run in 2020, so King went into the studio to record a complementary album. Then, just as she and her team finished tracking it in late February/early March, they all caught coronavirus.
