Originally hailing from the Highlands of Scotland, Marcia is a rising artist whose musical journey has taken her from the tranquil landscapes of her hometown to the music scene of London. This bold move wasn’t just a change of scenery; it was in this city that Marcia discovered her deep-seated love for R&B, a genre that would become the cornerstone of her soulful sound.
Years of dedicated music study and vocal refinement laid the foundation for Marcia’s artistic expression. Crafting beautifully melodic tales with subtly biting lyricism, Marcia transforms her stories into captivating musical journeys. Her music shines with authenticity and raw vulnerability, creating an emotional connection with listeners.
Influenced by a diverse array of artists, including Kehlani, Kiana Ledé, Summer Walker, Queen Naija, Kali Claire and Amy Winehouse, Marcia has been sharing her own sonic vision with the world this year. Having made her debut in May with the release of “Let Him Leave” she followed it up with the well-received sophomore single “Insecurity” in July.
Now she’s back and brings us her third single titled “Me and You,” another sensational showcase of her silky indie R&B sound. Opened by warm electric piano tones, softly floating in an atmospheric fabric of side chained textural pulses as Marcia’s filtered vocalisations flutter above a grooving bass line.
With the snap of the beat, the full song takes flight with a smooth sound capped by her stunning vocal leads. The delicate taps of drums carry the gentle energy as the subtly pounding bass notes underpin playful synth lead flourishes and pitched down backing vocals, crafting a glistening arrangement for Marcia’s elegant vocals to dance above, resulting in an enchanting and instantly memorable alternative R&B cut.
Initially setting out to write a love song, when she listened back to the first draft, Marcia realised that her artistic vision had guided her in a different direction where she thematically covered a toxic relationship. With another slick song in her breakout year, Marcia continues to go from strength to strength with each move.
