Kaki King - Bowery tonight, an NPR stream & stuff

Kaki King @ a BV show in Austin (more by Ryan Muir)
Kaki King

Kaki King slayed the crowd at Club DeVille just before midnight. Playing with her full band, the diminutive guitar virtuoso demonstrated how finger-picking is really done. The instrumental numbers often sounded like something you'd hear at a Pinback show, if that band had honed its chops on bluegrass and Ani DiFranco. Truly an impressive set, with a bang-up closing number: a riotous punk jam sung by its author, the Bubonics' Sara DeCastro. [Rolling Stone]

Boooring, what is it with you hipster kids?

Her name is "quirky", so she must be "good".

She doesn't hold a candle to the plethora of female talented singer songwriters out there right now.

She's a very talented guitarist, at best, and that's all.
