Round Dance is the first album of Romanian band Marta Popovici & On The Fly, bringing together our love for improvisation and my love for words and storytelling. All of the members' musical influences give birth to a modern jazz sound, infused with soul, trip-hop, nu-jazz, R&B, fusion and electronica. The album is named after the Round Dance suite, a four-part journey that is a unique endeavour in the contemporary Romanian musical landscape. Round Dance presents the same love story of a couple from 4 different perspectives, each part being another take on the same events. The music and the lyrics constitute the body of this narrative, evoking emotions such as calm, serenity, anger, confusion, longing and surrender.

“The first Romanian band Marta Popovici & On The Fly pleasantly surprised with their modern original repertoire. The excellent singer Marta Popovici is one of the most promising voices of the new generation that makes up the contemporary Romanian jazz scene. The On The Fly project, which she founded in 2018, is based on jazz music stylistics and is a lively and fresh expression of the young local generation, combining the musical tradition of this genre with modern sounds such as soul, r&b, neo-soul, trip-hop. Michal Kratochvíl: Great modern sung jazz in English. The compositions were original enough and the performance had juice. It was a very nice start of the festival and it is a pleasure to see that there is a very promising young generation in Romania. There were hints of prog rock in places and even a Pink Floyd vibe in some songs. If I had to compare the band's style to someone in the Czech environment, Marta Kloučková came to mind.” - JazzPort.cz
