Bass virtuoso, powerhouse vocalist and unstoppable performer Nik West brings her electrifying live show to Metro City, Northbridge on Saturday 31 October for one unforgettable night. 

A force of nature on stage, Nik West is renowned for her explosive energy, fearless musicianship and magnetic charisma. Singing, dancing and delivering jaw-dropping bass lines with effortless precision, she has earned a global reputation as one of the most exciting performers of her generation. As Billboard journalist Alex Henderson describes, she is "one 21st Century artist who isn't lacking in the chops department." 

West's extraordinary career has seen her collaborate, record and perform with some of music's biggest names, including Prince, Dave Stewart (Eurythmics), Quincy Jones, John Mayer, Santana, Larry Graham, Esperanza Spalding, Bootsy Collins and many more. She has also become the first Black woman to compose music for ESPN. 

Whether you're a devoted funk fan or simply love unforgettable live music, this is your chance to witness one of the world's most dynamic bassists in full flight. Prepare for an exhilarating night of funk, soul, rock and groove that will leave you buzzing long after the final note. 

Joining Nik West are two outstanding local acts. Odette Mercy & Her Soul Atomics will ignite the stage with their electrifying blend of soul and funk, channelling the timeless sounds of Motown and Stax with powerhouse musicianship and infectious energy. Opening the night, Pareidolia joins forces with acclaimed local rappers Zero Emcee and Razzy Mac for a one-night-only collaboration, delivering an exhilarating fusion of jazz and hip-hop.
