Heaven, 9 The Arches WC2N 6NG

Russian/American siren Nika Roza brings her superior brand of spoky goth-pop to these shores yet again, in support of recent third long-player Conatus. Her partner in crime at London’s premier nightspot for triumphant and all conquering purveyors of US cool (everyone knows someone who saw The Strokes in 2001), is fellow California resident Erika M. Anderson, or EMA to all but her closest acquaintances. The former gowns frontwoman comes fresh from a recent barnstorming headline set at Cargo, no doubt beaming with pride following the almost unanimous praise heaped upon solo debut Past Life Martyred Saints.
