Tika: The fearless songstress returns
The gig last Sunday evening at Score bar in Cilandak Town Square seemed much like any other organized by major sponsors trying to tap in to the youth market, most of them cigarette companies, as this particular shindig was. A host of indie bands of various genres were playing; some were familiar to me, others I had never heard of. One of the acts scheduled to perform that night was Tika, the chanteuse I consider to be one of the most underrated yet magnificent performers in the country's music scenes, be it indie or mainstream.
