Los Angeles-bases funkateer Nikka Costa is in town tonight playing a show at the Culture Room. She's probably better known in Europe on a pop level but Costa, daughter of former composer and arranger, Don Costa, is a soul sensation that deserves better attention stateside as well.
Here's a video of her breakout song, "Like a Feather" from 2001. She's actually got a new album being released today, called Pebble to a Pearl so the fact that she's in town today celebrating--while she could easily be in New York or L.A.--shouldn't go overlooked. Check her out tonight if you can.
