Indie Groover DARLING NIKKI Pays Homage to Elvis and Prince with Debut Single

Fri Aug 16, 2024

Have you ever felt like you’re in the wrong place at the wrong time? Fortunately, indie groove songstress Darling Nikki is here to write the quintessential soundtrack for this exact feeling of desiring a lost era. With an artistry that conveys nostalgic themes of disco, funk, and hippie enthusiasm, Darling Nikki’s music takes listeners back to a time where 70s soul thrived.

Her debut single “Elvis” – written, recorded, produced by herself - along with producing and editing the video, too - is a retro-fueled earworm, combining a punchy bass line with catchy brass to deliver a story of the king of rock and roll himself. However, the song was initially inspired not by the King, but Prince.
