Album Notes & Community Reviews

Propelled to widespread fame via early viral YouTube videos, the Kansas-born guitarist's second album is a masterclass in modern fingerstyle acoustics. Emphasizing open tunings, two-handed tapping, and highly percussive body slaps, McKee crafts intricate, profoundly melodic instrumental folk that feels both peaceful and exceptionally technical.
