Music Video LinksArtist BiographyAvailable in:
Marcel Coenen started playing the guitar at age 11. He learned all facettes of playing the guitar pretty fast and on age 13 he started playing in bands. One of the better known bands in which Marcel started playing when he was only 16 years old was the band Speedica. With this band Marcel did a lot of live gigs and the band released several demos and an album. Later the band changed the name into FORM and released an album called “I Choose My Own”, this was in 1994.
Around this year Marcel started the band AURA which later changed their name into Lemur Voice. In 1996 Lemur Voice released their first record called “Insights” through the American Magna Carta record label. Marcel also was invited to play on a tribute to Rush CD, released by the same label. The CD was called “Working Man, A Tribute To Rush” and had appearances of artists like John Petrucci and Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater), Steve Morse, Michael Romeo (Symphony X), Billy Sheehan (Mr Big) and several others. The song Marcel plays on was “Freewill”.
In 1998 Marcel joined the Dutch national guitar contests and became best Rock guitar player of the year (4th in all styles). This lead to his endorsement with Ibanez Guitars later that year.
In 1999 Lemur Voice released their second album called “Divided” and a year later Lemur Voice disbanded because of musical differences.
Marcel started the project Sun Caged in 1999, when Lemur Voice broke up Marcel made Sun Caged a full band. Band members were found and some demos were recorded. These caught the attention of Finnish label Lion Music and an album was recorded.
