20823 Nakia's CD Release Party & 32nd Birthday Bash! <p style="font: normal normal normal 13.3px/normal Arial; margin: 0px">Austin-based entertainer Nakia&rsquo;s debut EP, &ldquo;Playing the Cards,&rdquo; stacks the deck with an infusion of songs rooted in old-school soul, the Allman-Skynyrd school of rock and his Southern Baptist-church-choir upbringing. Formerly a player in Fastball vet Mile Zuniga&rsquo;s campy Small Stars, Nakia is now dealing a hand filled with four self-penned tunes, a never-before-recorded contribution by hit songwriter Monte Warden and a not-to-be-missed cover Billy Preston&rsquo;s &ldquo;That&rsquo;s the Way God Planned It.&rdquo;</p><p style="font: normal normal normal 13.3px/normal Arial; margin: 0px"><br /></p><p style="font: normal normal normal 13.3px/normal Arial; margin: 0px">Join Nakia as he debuts his new band, Southern Cousins including Mac McNabb, Barry &quot;Frosty&quot; Smith, Matt Hubbard, and Steve Zirkel. This show will also feature the &quot;Fresh Up Girls&quot; on backup vocals and some guests on horns as well. Nakia also turns 32 a mere 3 days after this event so get out and help him blow out the candles in style. This is an official event of the first annual &quot;Love Austin Music&quot; month sponsored by Austin Music Foundation, Gibson Guitar, and Budweiser.</p> http://do512.com/event/2007/02/17/nakias-cd-release-party-32nd-birthday-bash http://do512.com/event/2007/02/17/nakias-cd-release-party-32nd-birthday-bash.xml Saturday 02/17/07 20070218T040000Z/20070218T040000Z false 0 17.9841 Sat, 17 Feb 2007 22:00:00 -0600 Sat, 17 Feb 2007 22:00:00 -0600 6 SAT http://s3.amazonaws.com/do512/photos/3385/lambertslogo_sq_90.jpg Lamberts 1028 Lamberts http://do512.com/venue/lamberts-downtown-barbecue http://do512.com/venue/lamberts-downtown-barbecue.xml
