MUMBAI: San Diego-based electronic pop-rock musician, Cola James releases her debut single Black & White. The track came into fruition as a collaborative project when Cola James entered the studio with Mike Nicastro (Magic Bronson). From there the strong visualization for the Cola James project evolved and turned into a pop-art menagerie of color, fashion, and sexuality. With the help of director/producer Nina Hawkins, the vocal vixen was then able to turn the fiery and satisfyingly catchy single into a tantalizing visual debut of what else is to come in 2019.

Cola James says on her project, "As soon as I walked into the studio with Mike Nicastro we started having fun. Our recording looks like we are having a party. We both like to get people moving during live shows so it was natural for us to make a high energy dance tune. Black & White came together in one day. We both didn’t really know each other at the time but it was easy to see that there was no end in sight for creating together.”

Cola James is no stranger to the stage and recording studio. Prior to 2019, James acted as the lead singer for the San Diego-based indie rock band, The Verigolds (Sea of Zebras, October 2018). After nearly five years with the band though, the hypnotizing musician decided to dive into an artist project that reflected her artistry essence more provocatively. “If you’re not feeling like you’re bringing more light in the world together than by yourself, you shouldn’t be together.”
