Making waves in the world of indie rock, Spokane-based artist VIKA is a self-taught powerhouse infusing classic rock with deep blues and jazz instrumentation alongside her hauntingly dreamy Amy Winehouse-esque vocals. Coining a unique vintage sound swirling with themes of nostalgia, luck, and love, the soul of VIKA’s artistry was inspired by the sound of her brother’s piano. Adopted from Russia as a baby and raised in a household where jazz filled the air, music became more than just sounds for VIKA and laid the foundation for her to craft a shimmering, soulful musical landscape all her own that bridges both her past and future.

VIKA’s upcoming project is an eleven-track album set to release on June 20, 2025. Filled to the brim with her signature vintage sound and taking hold of new elements like country twang and pedal steel, the album is a sensual, tender, achingly vulnerable homage to the twists of fate and luck that we bump into along life’s path. A blossoming genre-defying artist in her own right, VIKA’s musical journey simultaneously builds on the legacies of classic rock icons and cuts a new path all her own, reminding listeners that luck is really what you make it.
