While joining alt-country group Wilco in 2004 has done a lot for Nels Cline's profile, it's his own work as a fearless, boundary-averse guitarist that's turned him into what Jazz Times has called “The World's Most Dangerous Guitarist."

The guitarist's latest release with Nels Cline Singers, Initiate (Cryptogramophone, 2010), represents a number of first for his nearly decade-old group with bassist Devin Hoff and drummer Scott Amendola. It's the trio's first double album and, with one disc recorded in the studio, the other culled from concert performances, its first live album as well. It's also the trio's most expansive set to-date, exploring a broader range of stylistic touchstones than ever before.

AAJ contributor Rex Butters spoke with Cline recently, delving into the music of Initiate in great detail.
