“Anywhere But Here is a tender, haunting, and soul-baring journey through love, loss, healing, and self-discovery. Across lush soundscapes and emotive storytelling, TIKA weaves a sonic tapestry that captures the ache of longing for a world — and a self — not yet fully realized. Rooted in the traditions of soul, R&B, and cinematic sound, the album becomes a refuge for anyone who has ever felt displaced within their own heart.

As both a meditation and a reckoning, Anywhere But Here invites listeners into the liminal spaces between grief and hope, sorrow and surrender, remembering and release. It is not just an album — it is a map of survival and a love letter to becoming.

Written from the marrow of lived experience, Anywhere But Here reminds us that healing is not linear, freedom is a frequency, and sometimes the only way to arrive is to first get lost.”
