Guitarist Kaki King has launched "Guitars & Things with Kaki King," a new series of lesson videos, at patreon.com. In the videos, King answers questions, shows viewers how to play her songs and more.

"I just thought it would be fun to make a series of videos everyone can have access to. Plus, I'm really looking forward to building a community around this series, which will include inviting fans to post their own cover versions of my songs, me covering other people's songs, and even doing things like interviewing other artists and generally having fun. Plus, I just built myself a home studio, and I want to show it off!"
