Cici Arthur is the project of Toronto musicians Chris Cummings (Marker Starling), Joseph Shabason, and Thom Gill and they dropped the music video for Cartwheels for Coins.
The second single is taken from the upcoming album called Way Through which is set for release on February 21, 2025 via Western Vinyl.
A beautiful 80s dreamy indie poppy tune.
About the track by Cici Arthur:
The resulting outsize backdrop sits in poetic contrast to Cummings’ comparatively discreet delivery and intimate lyricism. Steering the Shabason-Gill cruise liner with delicate intonation and quiet introspection, Cummings paints a picture of city lights gleaming in rain puddles, mapping subtle emotional territories within the urban gloom while resigning in a kind of joyous ennui.
“If I could be all that once looked so great and grand, I would have died for an occasion to rise to,” he sings through the horn section of ‘Cartwheels for Coins’, “but it’s a gray sky, nothing to say, mixed emotions always get in the way”.
