Kaki King – “Tunnel” Video (Stereogum Premiere)
Kaki King’s new video for her track “Tunnel” is special for a few reasons. First, the audio, which was recorded during King’s 2004 Legs To Make Us Longer sessions, has never been released before now. She’ll be releasing the track on a collection of new B-sides called Everybody Glows. Besides brand new audio, the video that accompanies “Tunnel” is entirely successful in underscoring King’s masterful command of the guitar. The clip takes the viewer speeding down a dark tunnel with the semi-transparent visual of King playing her guitar on a bench. Although King puts on an animal mask about halfway through the video, it doesn’t detract from the deft, mesmerizing picking and strumming of her guitar. Watch below.
Everybody Glows is out today. Order it at Bandcamp.
