I wasnt particularly excited about this years Artscape but I was pumped to see that Nikka Costa would be performing!
I have been a fan for years and wondered what she had been up to and Artscape helped me to rekindle my musical affair with the siren.
Her afternoon performance in the hot sun was well worth my trip to the largest art festival in the country. After being introduced by high school buddy Rain Pryor, Nikka Costa delivered a RAWKIN show which included tracks "Like A Feather", "Nylons In A Rip", and "Push And Pull". Her band was phenomenal and and did a great job making her Baltimore come back memorable. Especially the trombone player...she certainly had a Red Bull before stepping on stage.
Surprisingly a rack of fans braved the heat to hear her classic vocals take on her most known songs and deliver new tracks from her latest EP Pro-Whoa. I hope that this is just the first of many performances by Nikka Costa in this area...believe me I would do my best to see her live again. Take a listen to "Nylons In A Rip"
