Vicci Martinez is starting off 2013 with a bang! Her single “Come Along” has broken it’s way into the top 100 of the iTunes Top Pop charts! So far, the single has peaked at #99. With some hard work and loyal fans, I’m sure it will continue the climb. Believe it or not, our little warrior is the only “The Voice” contestant (from any of the 3 seasons) that is currently on the radio.
“Come Along’ was recently picked up by two new stations. Vicci can be heard in both Texas and Washington, D.C. as we speak. We thank 102.9 NOW (Twitter:@102NOW) and 94.7 Fresh FM(Twitter:@94freshFM) for believing in Vicci as much as we do! While “Come Along’ is on the up and up, we have also gotten word that “I Can Love” is slated to be the next single. Woohoo! Also, in the upcoming weeks, Vicci is set to start filming the music video for “Come Along” with Cee Lo Green! How awesome is that?!
It’s just a little over a month into the new year and Vicci is at it again. Back to the grind and back out on the road. She has hit up several radio stations in the past 6 weeks and I have a good feeling there are many more to come. Vicci headed for the East Coast and we were more than happy to have her! Shortly after touching down in New York she stopped by the VH1 studio and did a performance giving them “permanent goosebumps”. In the upcoming days Vicci was a busy girl. She stopped in Delaware at 93.7 (Twitter:@937WSTW) and then performed in Atlantic City and an intimate SoJo session, presented by SoJo 104.9.(Twitter:@sojo104fm)
Many of the east coast Army members were able to attend this event, and it was well worth the wait! I was lucky enough to be one of those members to see Vicci sing live. Once again she blew me away with a 4 song set at the Tango Lounge in Atlantic City. She began with her power anthem “I Can Love,” catching the attention of people passing by the lounge who ended up staying to watch the rest of the set. Then came “Touch That Fire,” “Jolene,” and ending it with a heart stopping rendition of “Come Along.” That version of “Come Along” was without a doubt the best version I have ever seen or heard her sing. And I watch all of the YouTube videos! Vicci seemed so lost in the song that it ended up being almost 7 minutes long. Afterwards a few of the ARMY members just looked at each other speechless, but you could see the amazement in each others eyes. Vicci, we can not wait for you to come back and give us more!! (To the left is a picture of Vicci with some ARMY members in AC)
Next up Vicci was headed back to the big apple. She made another appearance in studio at Fresh 102.7 in New York. (Twitter:@Fresh1027NY) Radio, radio, and more radio! This is a good thing. This is how we get Vicci out there and its finally working. She also made a stop in Pennsylvania to perform for Mix 106.1.(Twitter:@MixPhiladelphia) This concert took place at the iHeart Radio Performance Theatre in Bala Cynwyd.
With many radio promo events under her belt, Vicci is headed back to the West Coast. Then the day so many people have wanted since June 19th 2012 comes. The CD “VICCI” officially released IN STORES on February 5th!!! Yes that’s right folks you heard me right. The label has decided to release a physical copy of Vicci’s CD! YAY! All that hard work did pay off. Way to go Beth and Vicci!
February the 8th was a busy day for Vicci Martinez. She performed with The Seattle Women’s Chorus and also did an interview with Sirius XM pulse to chat about her career and what’s to come. The very next day Vicci does an in-store performance and signing at Silver Platters in Tacoma, WA. to promote the recent release of her album.
