I know I need it and figured we all do sometimes. It's up, it's dancy, it's happy, it's funky, it's positive, and it's not taking itself too seriously, which is how I want to feel most days! Art is such a powerful tool for healing whether it's facing the storms or finding some release when in the midst of them and I hope this album can let some light and FUNK into someone's day when they need it. Energy dictates the feeling, what you put out there multiplies.” Leading up to the album release, she shared  “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", “Keep It High” and the energetic single “Dance ‘N Forget”. 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 on the West Coast and November in East Coast.
