Vicci Martinez Closes Out the Summer with a Bang!

 
 
 

Vicci wrapped up her 2012 summer tour in NYC with a Labor Day show at the Roockwood Music Hall. This was a last minute show that made the East Coast fan base very very happy people. Some fans drove for up to  4 hours to get the chance to see Vicci live!

I was one of the lucky fans to be in attendance for what was called, “An acoustic night with Vicci Martinez.” Vicci played a 45 minute set which ended up having a slightly old school Vicci vibe. She decided to play what she wanted and what the fans wanted to hear. The set included classic Vicci songs such as “Enjoy the Ride,”  “The Morning After,” “Joyride,” and “What you Believe”. She also sang modern versions of “Touch That Fire” and “Hold Me Darlin.” It was an amazing and intimate setting. After the show Vicci stayed and hung out with a few of the Army members.  She took pictures, signed autographs, and even grabbed a drink with us! It was a very special night to say the least.

On Sept. 5th Vicci stopped in Delaware at the WSTW 93.7 (Twitter:@937WSTW) Help our Kid” Radiothon, an event that helps raise money and awareness for children with cancer.WSTW recently picked up Vicci’s single “Come Along” into their radio rotation!

Later that night she continued on to Wilmington, DE with guitarist Steve Vai on his “Story of Light” tour. Vicci has been opening up for Steve in place of fellow friend and Season one Voice alumni,  Beverly McClellan, due to previous engagements. Vicci picked up two extra shows on Sept. 9th and 11th due to Beverly feeling under the weather. Beverly is scheduled to rejoin Steve in Boston on Sept. 13th.

Vicci is due to head back West for some more shows until the end of Sept. Then she is off to Texas on Sept. 30th to sing the National Anthem at the Houston Texans vs. Tennessee Titans football game! Now that’s a huge audience!!! She will then play a few shows in Texas so head on over to our touring section or Vicci’s website and make sure you get your tickets now!

A quick chat with Beth Tallman (Vicci’s super amazing Manger!) revealed that their goal for Oct/Nov is to come back to the East Coast and Mid West.. AND put together a string of tour dates! And wait! There’s more! Depending on his schedule some or all of these dates may include Season 2 of the Voice alumni, Jamar Rogers! OK now you can scream!!! So East Coast and Mid West keep your eyes open for new dates. We will post them the second we get them!

On the radio front I got news that our requests are working! I can not point out how important it is to put yourself our there and request “Come Along.”  Even if the song is not playing in your area, find a station that is playing it and tweet that station or go their website and request the song. Every little bit you do helps Vicci. I don’t live in CA, but I request the track on Y101 Fresno (Twitter:@Y101Fresno) all the time because I know its being played there. Another station that has picked up Vicci’s song in good rotation is Minneapolis station KS95 (Twitter:@ks95).  It only takes a click of a button. You could also download free apps such as IHeartRadio and listen to these stations! The more you request the song the more of the chance that your station will pick it up! Check out our list of stations that have Vicci’s single and keep requesting. It is one of the most, if not THE most important thing you can do to help! We are going to be updating our lists as we get more stations so keep a look out!

Here’s a few more ways that you can help support Vicci. Attend a show if she’s in your area! Why wouldn’t you?? She is amazing live! I’ve been to many concerts, big and small, and I am being completely honest when I say that Vicci puts on the best shows EVER! You just feel it! It’s real, it’s emotional, it’s fun, it’s LOVE! While attending the show, why not bring a friend? Introduce new people to the gift that is Vicci! If you do not have her CD yet, what are you waiting for? BUY IT!! Already have it? Buy it or gift it to a friend or a complete stranger! Use your social media networks to share tour dates, articles, stories, music, videos, all things Vicci! Use Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, Google+, Tumblr, etc. to invite friends to like Vicci’s FB page, follow her on Twitter, and even Join #ViccisARMY. You might not realize it but a little support can go a long way!
