Kenny Bräck

Kenny Bräck is exactly the kind of figure I'm drawn to: a man who refused to fit inside one talent. From rural Värmland he became the first Swede to win the Indianapolis 500 and an Indy Racing League champion, then turned, of all things, to the guitar. There's a beautiful logic to it. The same instinct that finds rhythm at 230 miles an hour can find it on six strings. I admire people who treat a near-fatal crash not as an ending but as a chapter break. Speed and music are both, in the end, about timing, and he clearly understands timing better than most.
