Tiffany here - one of the most recent additions to the TuneUp family.
Aside from the critically important jobs I have as a member of TuneUp’s marketing team, blogging regularly is going to be the one I’ll be enjoying most. Along with everyone in the office, I am a music omnivore and I hope to take you on weekly magical journeys in the audiotopia of my mind… or something like that: cool concerts, new music, funny videos, etc. Aside from being a vinyl-junkie and culture vulture, I have been known to do a mean worm on the dance floor.
At the latest The Mountain Goats show at the Filmore on Friday night, the opening act Kaki King provided a virtuoso performance to ring-in the headliners. Her album “Dreaming of Revenge” is full of emotional twists and turns set to her lovely acoustic guitar skills. Supposedly, she mastered her unusual playing in New York City subway stations, wherever it’s from, its awesome to listen to - and even cooler to watch.
Check out her mad picking/strumming on this video:
Note how she doesn’t even have to look down as she’s wailing on that guitar like it ain’t no thang. Rock on.
