She's amazing! :)

Lately i've been listening to her records like crazy style. Her first 2 records "Legs to Make Us Longer" & "Everybody Loves You" are so relaxing. Tracks like Ingots , Carmine St. , Playing With Pink Noise etc.. are very soothing for the soul. Her 3rd record "Until We Felt Red" is very electric with full band.

I just found out about her great talent day's ago. I'm so behind in everything. :(

    She is awesome!

    notes:

    she is on "The Ballad of the Beaconsfiled Miners" on the Foo Fighters new record
    she is on the original score for "Into the Wild"
    she works a lot with the folks from Tortoise.

    Saw her a few times and her musicianship is f'n top notch!!
    “I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”

  • According to Nate Mendel (Foo Fighters Bassist) on the Foo's Long Blog To Ruin, she may support the Foo Fighters in Australia in April/May. I hope so.

    I just saw Kaki King play at that Foo Fighters breakfast thing last week. Yeah... she's pretty damn good. Made that Beaconsfield Miners song look like a piece a cake.

    I guess I didn't need to start a thread. I am going to see her next week open up for the Mountain Goats. This night may change my life
