Release Notes:
In 2007, Kaki King branched out into film work, composing original music for
several scenes in the Sean Penn-directed film Into the Wild, which also features
two of her previously released songs. Her work for this film has garnered her a
Golden Globe nomination for Best Original Score. In addition, she recorded two
tracks for the film August Rush, in which she appears as a guitar-playing hand
double. Aside from Penn, King also has a fan in Foo Fighters frontman Dave
Grohl, who asked her to duet with him on ôBallad of The Beaconsfield Minersö
from the FoosÆ current album Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace.
ôTo have these kinds of opportunities has been amazing,ö King says. ôJust to
know that I can walk into a room, pick up a guitar, and play a piece of music
that IÆve never heard before without days of rehearsal -- I feel good knowing
that IÆm being asked to do such challenging things.ö
For now, King is excited about the March 2008 release of Dreaming Of Revenge. ôI
want people to listen to it and think, æThis sounds like something completely
new, but it also sounds like something Kaki King would do,Æö she says. ôI am
finding my own voice within the world of instrumental music at large, as opposed
to just instrumental guitar. So IÆd love for people to hear it and think, æIf I
had to take a guess, I think Kaki King might have written this song. That would
be a dream.ö
