New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Marci - the project of Montreal-based band TOPS' Marta Cikojevic - today presents her debut single/visualizer, "Entertainment," released via Arbutus Records. ​​Like a great friend, a pop song is an intimate confidante, a shoulder to cry on, and a partner in crime when you're ready to get dolled up and dance the pain away under the disco ball (or in front of your bedroom mirror.) That's what you'll find on "Entertainment," as Marci steps out on her own in self-assured style. Like much of classic pop, "Entertainment" is focused on the ups and downs of love. Produced and recorded with her TOPS bandmate David Carriere, it's a song about flirting with fantasy, and the cat and mouse game of lust. It uses an irresistibly '80s-tinged mix of synth arpeggios and smooth saxophone runs to emphasize the song's inherent sense of friskiness. "'Entertainment' is having fun flirting with life, with lust, or without purpose," says Marci. "Its conception was uncomplicated, we took parts from a song that was proving difficult to finish, added some new ingredients and it came out like cake."

The confidence of Marci's debut single belies the fact that she has never formally written songs before, though she's been a student of melody since her childhood in rural Ontario. She would sing along to the radio pop divas du jour, perform in the church choir, and participate in piano recitals. The middle child of five sisters, Marci describes herself as a shy singer at home, who would instead seek out secret spots—the forest behind her home or a broken down van on their property were favorites—to practice her singing and record the songs she would make up herself into a handheld recorder. She was encouraged to do so by her grandfather, a refugee from the former Yugoslavia, who would sing and record both original songs and traditional Croatian folk songs on a cassette dictation machine.

Marci will kick off her debut solo North American tour this fall, starting in Montreal on Sat. Oct. 8th. She'll play Boston, Brooklyn, Chicago, Detroit, and Toronto before wrapping up the tour in Los Angeles on Fr. Oct. 28th. A full list of dates are below.
