vocals on "Roll It" on Clapton's studio album Backless (1978) and dueted with Clapton on "The
Core", which she also co-wrote with Clapton. During this period, she began working on her
debut solo studio album with producer David Foster in the mid-late 1970s signed to RSO
Records. For unknown reasons however, the album was shelved and remained unfinished.
Marcy later stopped working with Clapton to focus more on her own solo career, but rejoined
him when they performed at Live Aid where she added backing vocals. Whilst working on her
debut studio album, she was singing and songwriting for numerous artists including Aretha
Franklin, Burt Bacharach, Carole Bayer Sager, Stanley Clarke, Chaka Khan, Belinda Carlisle,
and Al Jarreau.[5]

Marcy duetted with Alice Cooper on his 1978 studio album From the Inside (producer David
Foster) on the song "Millie and Billie". She provided backing vocals on the 1980 hit "Lookin' for
Love" (#5 Pop and #1 Country) by Johnny Lee. Also in 1980, she sang a duet with Robin Gibb,
"Help Me!", which was featured on the official soundtrack of the film Times Square. The song
was released as a single, and reached number 50 on the US Billboard Hot 100.[6] She also sang
a duet on Jimmy Ruffin's studio album Sunrise; "Where Do I Go", and in 1981 was featured on
the official soundtrack of American Pop on "Somebody to Love".[7][8] During this period,
Detroit was signed to Epic Records and released her debut studio album, Marcella in 1982. The
album failed to appear on any major charts, and after the commercial failure of the album, Epic
Records refused Detroit tour allowance with John Mellencamp, and she was later dropped by
the label.[5] She wrote and provided backing vocals for "Tangled in Love" with Richard
Feldman, which appeared on Eric Clapton's 1985 studio album Behind the Sun. Following this,
she was asked by Clapton to start to work with him again, and after another year of touring with
him, she once more left to pursue her own solo career.[5] Detroit (credited as Marcy Levy)
released an LP together with Diane Reeves in 1985, titled Ballerina, where she performs three
songs, "Ballerina", "Pretty Polly" and "Always a Woman in Love".[9] Also credited as Marcy
Levy, she sang a duet with Max Carl, "Come and Follow Me" for the movie Short Circuit 1 in
1986; however no movie soundtrack album was ever released. Detroit was featured in 1988 on
the official soundtrack of Mac and Me, on the song "You Knew What You Were Doing".[8]

1988–1993: Shakespears Sister


Detroit met Bananarama member Siobhan Fahey through a mutual friend, songwriting partner
Richard Feldman. At the time, Fahey had been contemplating leaving the band for her solo
brainchild project Shakespears Sister. Feldman had invited Detroit as a songwriting aid. During
this period, Fahey suggested to Detroit that she change her name to "give me a sort of new lease
of life and to get me disassociated with my background vocal past/entity". Detroit continued to
work as a "hired hand" until Fahey's husband Dave Stewart of Eurythmics suggest the two form
a band, which was backed by Feldman, Fahey's management and her record company, London
Records.[10] Detroit officially became a member of the band after the release of the first
Shakespears Sister single, "Break My Heart (You Really) / Heroine". Their second single "You're
History" reached the top 10 in the UK, as did their debut studio album Sacred Heart, which was
certified Gold by the BPI.[11] Two further singles were released from Sacred Heart, "Run Silent"
and "Dirty Mind", both of which failed to peak within the UK top 50.[12]

In late 1991, Shakespears Sister released the first single from their second studio album
Hormonally Yours, "Goodbye Cruel World", which was also a commercial failure, failing to
peak within the UK top 50. The second single however, "Stay", marked Shakespears Sister's first

and only number one, staying at the top of the UK charts for eight consecutive weeks, and also
found similar success in international charts.[3][12] Hormonally Yours was released the
following month, and was certified 2× Platinum by the BPI.[11] The duo continued to enjoy
success with further singles from Hormonally Yours; "I Don't Care" peaked at number seven,
"Hello (Turn Your Radio On)" at number 14, and a re-release of "Goodbye Cruel World" at
number 32.

During this period, however, tensions began to arise between the two. A concert at the Royal
Albert Hall was cancelled due to Fahey's own personal issues at the time, and the two decided to
put Shakespears Sister on hiatus for Detroit to release her new solo studio album, which she had
been working on at the time, and also for Fahey to "take that time off to be with her family."
During this period, the fifth and final single from Hormonally Yours was released; "My 16th
Apology", and due to both members being unable to promote it, it was a commercial failure,
reaching number 63 on the UK charts. Detroit found out that Fahey had ended her partnership
with her at the 1993 Ivor Novello Awards ceremony through Fahey's publisher when
Hormonally Yours won "Best Contemporary Collection of Songs". Detroit and Fahey did not
speak to or see each other for 25 years,[10] before eventually meeting up and talking again in
2018.[13]

1994–2001: Jewel, Feeler, and Dancing Madly Sideways


After leaving Shakespears Sister in 1993, Detroit began her own solo career also with London
Records. Her second studio album, and her first since leaving the duo, Jewel was released in
March 1994 preceded by "I Believe", which reached number 11 in the UK. The album itself
reached number 15 and was certified silver by the BPI.[3][11] Jewel received mixed reviews from
critics – Aaron Badgley from AllMusic commented "[Chris Thomas] seems to steer Marcella
into mid-'90s dance grooves, which does not always fit her own distinctive sound".[14] Three
more singles followed; "Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing" (a duet with Elton John), "I'm No
Angel", and "Perfect World", which peaked at number 24, 33, and 134 respectively.[3]

Detroit left London Records sometime in 1995. She released her third studio album Feeler in
September 1996 under various labels; in the UK it was released under AAA Records, in some
European territories under Mega Records, in others Silvertone Records.[15] The album did not
chart in the UK, or any other territories except Japan, where under Sony Records it peaked at
number 82. Four singles were released, "I Hate You Now...", "Somebody's Mother", "Boy", and
"Flower". "I Hate You Now..." and "Boy" peaked at number 107, and 102 respectively.[3] A live
album, Without Medication Plus MTV "Buzz Live", was released promotionally in Japan in
1996. In the same year, she guest-starred in two episodes of Absolutely Fabulous as an angel.[16]
Over the course of the two episodes, five original songs by Detroit feature in numerous scenes,
which were later released in 1999 on Abfab Songs. The same year, Detroit released Demoz, a
double-CD collection of demos. Her fourth solo album, Dancing Madly Sideways was released
in July 2001 under Detroit's own independent label Banned Records, which would later be
retitled Lofi Records. The album was preceded by one single, "Lust for Like", and a three-track
sampler EP, Limited Edition.[15] None of these releases charted internationally. In 2002, she
featured on Aurora's single "If You Could Read My Mind".

2002–2008: Marcy Levy Band

3 von 9 20.06.2025, 20:36


Marcella Detroit - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcella_Detroit

After Dancing Madly Sideways, Detroit formed her self-titled blues band (named after her
birth name and original stage name); the Marcy Levy Band, with Michael Fell on harmonica,
Job Striles on guitar, Rick Reed on bass, and Max Bangwell on drums.[17] Detroit described the
project as "getting back to my roots, the stuff that inspired me in the first place. So I decided to
contact all my blues friends and do a record."[18] Their debut EP Button Fly Blues received a
limited release under Handmade Records, Detroit and the band's only release with the label.[15]
During this era, she toured with Carlos Guitarlos,[19] and began songwriting for artists including
Charlotte Church and Alex Parks, among others. The Marcy Levy Band released their debut
studio album The Upside of Being Down in July 2006 under Detroit's independent label Lofi
Records. In April 2007, she featured on Loverush U.K.'s single "Mystery to Me". In 2008, she
also featured on "My Friend Misery" by Vacuum.[20][21]

2009–2018: Popstar to Operastar, The Vehicle, and Gray Matterz


In 2009, the Marcy Levy Band split. The same year, Detroit featured on Alex Dixon's –
grandson of Willie Dixon – album Rising from the Bushes on two tracks: "Fantasy" and "Paint
You a Picture".[22] As of mid-2009, Detroit had been working on two separate solo studio
albums; Skin I'm In, produced by Larry Klein, and The Vehicle, a more personal project, and is
to coincide with the release of her autobiography of the same name.[23] In January 2010 Detroit
participated in Series 1 of the British ITV1 celebrity reality television show Popstar to
Operastar. She finished as a joint semi-finalist alongside Kym Marsh in week 5 of the
competition. When the voting statistics were released it was revealed that she had more votes
than Marsh; therefore she came third overall. She was also only three percent behind Darius
Campbell Danesh, who went on to become the winner of the season.[24] In 2010, she released a
single titled "All is Forgiven", based on the Irish Prayer, which has since been removed from the
iTunes Store.[25] In November 2011, Detroit released her first Christmas EP Happy Holiday,
consisting of classic covers and an original song of the same name.[26]

In May 2012, Detroit released her first single in two years; "Madison's Light" as a tribute to her
niece, who died at the age of five months.[26] Five months after the release of the single, Detroit
officially set up the not-for-profit charity organization "The Madison Morr Foundation" for
children in need.[27] Detroit was featured on the song "Yell Cut" among numerous artists
including Anthony Costa, originally written by aspiring singer Natasha Anastasi, who was killed
in a car accident in 2005.[28] The song was recorded for and included on Anastasi's tribute
album Natasha, released in June 2012 consisting of songs performed by Anastasi and other
artists. In August 2012, Detroit announced James Gadson would be featuring on her "new
album" (which one hasn't been specified) and would be performing on her tour with her, which
opened on September 20, 2012 in Largo, Florida.[27] In September 2012, she released a new
single "Love, Faith, and Hope", which was intended to be the official anthem of the Belgrade
Pride festival, which was cancelled by the Serbian government due to security reasons.[27] In
November 2012, Detroit released her second Christmas EP, entitled Holiday 2012, and
confirmed on her official Facebook page that both studio albums (Skin I'm In and The Vehicle)
were completed, and awaiting release for early 2013.[26][27]

It was announced in December 2012 that Detroit was expecting to release both albums
internationally on Valentine's Day, 2013. She was developing an official app, to be released free,
containing exclusive information "you won't be able to find anywhere else".[29] A supporting
tour backed by London session organisation The AllStars Collective, the Vehicle Jump Start

Tour, opened on April 28, 2013 in Milton Keynes, United Kingdom.[27] Detroit announced in
February 2013 that she had signed with Right Recordings, a UK-based label with "major
distribution through Universal".[30]

2019–present: Shakespears Sister reunion


In May 2019,[31] it was announced that Detroit would reunite with Fahey as Shakespears Sister
on stage later in the year.[32] A UK tour, titled Shakespears Sister Ride Again, was announced
during the same month, and was launched in Nottingham on 31 October 2019, before playing 13
other gigs across the UK during the following month.[33] A new single by the band, "All the
Queen's Horses", was released on 15 May, with an accompanying music video.[34] This was
followed by the compilation album, Singles Party, in July 2019.

The duo performed "Stay" on The Graham Norton Show on 10 May 2019; their first TV
performance together since 1993. They also announced that they were recording an EP of new
material.[35] which turned out to be the Ride Again mini-album, which charted at number 69 in
the UK Albums chart in November 2019.[36]

In 2021, Detroit appeared on a cover version of Robbie Williams' "Angels", recorded for charity
with Tony Hadley of Spandau Ballet, Jools Holland, Clem Burke of Blondie and Glen Matlock of
the Sex Pistols. In June 2021, she talked about her time working with Eric Clapton and Alice
Cooper on an episode of Sounds of the 70s with Johnnie Walker on BBC Radio 2.[37][38][39][40]

Songwriting career
Detroit has co-written many songs for other artists, starting when she was part of Eric Clapton's
