Nikka Costa Announces 1st Album in Six Years + New Tour

Today, LA-based soul and funk singer Nikka Costa shares the release date of her new single “Dance ‘N Forget” taken from her highly anticipated album Dirty Disco. The album was recorded with and produced by Justin Stanley (Prince, Jamie Lidell, Beck, etc.) and will be released on August 16th. Today, tickets to her first tour in over six years go on sale at 10 am PST here.

She adds that “”Dance ‘N Forget” is about that feeling you get when you’re just DONE and wanna hang with your friends and forget everything. It’s lights out, shoes off, people you love, music loud, no worries, all fun, zero %$#ucks! “Amnesia, give me a dose of it so I can care less. Something to turn off my mind.” Known for her powerful vocals, dynamic stage presence, and diverse musical influences, Nikka Costa returns from a six-year musical career break with future-forward disco-inspired sounds. 

Each performance offers a glimpse into Nikka Costa’s immense talent and charismatic stage presence with previous support shows for Prince, Lenny Kravitz, Coldplay, Pink, etc. She’s excited to play new live dates to celebrate Dirty Disco in September.

Earlier, she released  “It’s Just Love” “a song about being able to love who you want and everyone else should just mind their own damn business. Period.” as well as the title track “Dirty Disco” and “Keep It High”.

Along with the talents of versatile musicians such as Brandon Coleman (Kamasi Washington, Thundercat, Donald Glover, Flying Lotus), Greg Phillinganes (Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, and Kaveh Rastegar (John Legend, Beck), Nikka Costa brings you in her Dirty Disco immersive world.
