Music Corner Week 141: Marcy
Marcy is a three-member rock band from Fukuoka, that formed in 2018. They were originally named astela and consisted as a four-member band until 2019 when they became Mary. Marcy tugs on the heart strings of their listeners specially with tracks that remind us of those living memories of heartbreak that can never be erased. They have generated a cult following from the Gen Z female listeners, however, the band harkens on that path of introducing the masses to their new style of love songs.
Main vocalist Ukyo Yoshi showcases their style amazingly with thoughtful and provoking lyrics that brings a tear to listeners. Paired with the smooth composition that both bassist Takumi Fujii and lead guitarist Shuji, the boys hit it out of park. While not the most upbeat style that some listeners think of when they hear Japanese rock, Marcy hits that sweet spot for that perfect mix of lyrical composition. Songs like “Forget-me-not”, “Our future”, and “Love Song”, show off just a small fraction on how they are hitting their stride in terms of emotional lyrics and love songs.
Currently Marcy has released 16 digital singles starting from 2020 all the way to their latest hit, “Love Song”. They have also released one studio album titled Memory that was released in June of 2022.
