Musician Ventures Into Massive Cave To Sing Powerful Cover Of “Wayfaring Stranger.”

Malinda Kathleen Reese is a singer, songwriter, and actress who is simply known as MALINDA online. She started out with funny songs about Google Translate fails, and in just a few years, she amassed a huge audience across YouTube and Instagram. Today, one of her favorite things to do is record videos of herself singing in unusual places… which just so happen to have outstanding acoustics!

One breathtaking adventure began when she got permission to enter Mammoth Cave National Park in Kentucky. It’s the longest known cave system in the world with over 405 miles of explored passageways. People have been mapping out this vast network of stalactite-covered walls for over 6,000 years, but this may have been the first time someone performed the American folk classic “Wayfaring Stranger” in them.

Check out Malinda’s stirring rendition in the video below, and be sure to share this story to make someone smile.
