Natasha James

The Chrome Lotus nightclub in Santa Rosa hasn’t been open long, but its management and talent bookers know how to keep things interesting.

Last week, Danny Gokey of  “American Idol” played the club.

This Thursday, March 25, the club features Sonoma County singer-songwriter Natasha James, who has a national country hit with “If You Think Is Love,” from her newest CD, “Tequila Time.”

The CD won “Country Album Of The Year” at the 19th annual Los Angeles Music Awards, and James recently was nominated for “2010 Female Artist of the Year” by the online music magazine, Rockwired.

Despite the country label, the music also has rock roots and sometimes, a Latin jazz flavor.

James and her band will perform at 8 p.m. Thursday. Admission: $10. Information: (415) 646-5335,  www.chromelotussr.com.
