Okay, so I made the Nakiawear term up, so sue me. Go see Nakia. Yeah.
Great news can be found on Nakia’s website tonight. The Austin local was ranked in the top ten musicians by Margert Moser in the Austin Chronicle. Now is the time for voting for the Chronicle’s Music Poll. Check out that needs to be done at Nakia’s site and also who to vote for.
