About me

I chose my artist name as I was about to perform for the first time in 2000 with my former band Bluwheel. We needed stage names to introduce ourselves while jaming and I chose mine out of the Indian Tikka symbol I was wearing on my forehead that night. And I kept it ever since.

I'm based in Paris but I have been lucky enough to be able to play in Seoul (Korea) and thanks to my Believers I have also performed in London & Amsterdam in 2007. I had the incredible chance to share the Elysee-Montmartre stage with Cody Chesnutt and as opening act of Maceo Parker in 2004. In 2007, I opened for Tower of Power, Malia & Robin Thicke. I also played at big Festivals in France: the Solidays in July 2005 and July 2007, Enghien Jazz Festival in June 2007 and I opened les Muzik'elles de Meaux in September 2007. Thanks to my 684 believers, I recorded my first album in California at RadioStar Studios with the producer Sylvia Massy. The album will be released this summer...

Discography
In 2008, I recorded my Sellaband album thanks to you all and it is going to be released in the summer 2008.
In 2006, I self-produced and recorded 10 songs in the studio that you can hear now on Sellaband.
In 2005, I participated to a side-project: I wrote and interpreted 4 songs (Maui, 108 times a day, Bikini Girl, Don't steal my Bike) on Bikini Rumble's album "Almost Hydrofoiling" (Montera Records/La Baleine) released worldwide on October, 26th 2005.

Soul-Pop from Paris, but fit for the international stage! T-KA's voice is both pleasant and powerful, a joy to listen to. Music with a heart & (a) soul. Can't wait to hear the album!
