Marlies Schuitemaker 26 Is A Name Not Quite Unfamiliar In Holland. Although She Has Basically Been Singing Since She Was A Baby Her Mayor Breakthrough For The Dutch Audience Was Realised Through The Dutch Pop Idols Series Where She Was Voted Fourth In 2004. Her Appearance And Her Strong Vocals Gave Her The Image Of A True Rock Artist And Soon The Jury Praised Her For Having The Mysterious X-Factor. Whatever The Reason Through The Programme She Was Offered The Opportunity To Do What She Was Born For. To Sing And To Perform. Before She Became An Idols Contestant The Performed Regularly In Her Own Regions. After The Programme She Toured All Through Holland. Nowadays She Still Performs Regularly. She Has A Large Group Fans Who Attend Every Concert She Gives And Who Are Following Her Every Move. Could The Fact That She Values Personal Contact With Her Fans Highly Have Anything To Do With This? Probably Yes. 2005 Has Been A Busy Year For The Singer. Marlies Signed A Record Deal With White Villa Records Ede In January. In March 2005 They Released Her First Single 'Everything'. The Song Reached The 42nd Place In The Top 100 Charts And The Accompanying Video Got Broadcasted Often On Dutch Music Television. In September 2005 Marlies Took Her Art Abroad. She Toured Bosnia. Three Dutch Military Camps Were Visited By The Singer And Welcomed Her Enthusiastically . In December She Released Her Second Single 'Not Much Of A Man' . Due To The Fact It Was No Common Pop Song White Villa Decided Not To Release It. Marlies Wanted To Release It Anyway. She Wanted To Do Her Own Thing Rather Than Going Blindly For Commerce Success. Nevertheless Not Much Of A Man Has Sold All 500 Printed Copies Without Any True Promotional Activities And Has Now Turned Into A Collectors Item. Furthermore The Song Was Special For Her Not Only For Being Self Written And Autobiographical But Also Her Brother And Her Mother Were Doing The Backing Vocals. When One Takes In Account The Fact That Marlies' Mother Suffers From Multiple Sclerosis He Will Certainly Understand The Highly Personal Atmosphere In Which The Song Was Both Recorded And Released The Dutch Singer Has A Broad Interest Which Can Be Noticed Through All Her Other Activities. She Is Not Only A Singer. She Is Also A Teacher In A Dutch Secondary School And She Studies To Earn A First Degree In English In Amsterdam. She Has Also Been A Radio-Show Host For A Year And She Presents A Music Programme On Dutch Television And Internet Called Music Minds. About Half A Year Ago Things Took A Positive Turn When Her New Drummer Introduced Her To Robby Valentine. Valentine Had A Huge Hit In 1991 With The Killer Song 'Over And Over Again'. As Holland Didn't Seem To Be Quite Ready For His Work He Soon Took Off To Japan Where He Became Huge Success. Marlies And Valentine Started Working On New Material For Her Debut Album And They Could Get Along Well Enough For Him To Offer Her To Produce The Album As Well. The Album Is Recorded At The Legacy Studio In Holland. An Outmost Wonderful Studio And A True Privilege To Work In. Just When You Think That's All There's Even More. Currently Marlies Is About To Release Two Albums. While Rehearsing One Evening Valentine And Marlies Rounded The Evening Off With The Same Song As Usual But Done 'Delectrified'. Just The Basics Piano And Vocals Combined With Heart Warming Harmonies. They Decided To Release These Versions As Well Due To Be Released In June '07.
