 Marcel van der Linden’s voice has a typical sixties sound. As front man of the Mal Evans Memorial Band he gave convincing vocal renditions of all four members of the Beatles. He previously played in several bands, amongst which the promising Johnny’s Pitbull and after 1997 took part in the theatre/multimedia project Rawwax. At the end of the nineties he was organizing and supporting the music circuit in the area of the city of Tilburg by means of the foundation ‘Stichting MuziKantenWinkel’. 1999 to 2004 saw a break from music, bar some DJ-sessions with the immense popular New Wave DJ-team “Boys do Cry”, only to return to his Beatle calling to form the Mal Evans Memorial Band in 2005. Marcel and The BeatlesBorne: 28 march 1971 GoirleLives in: Tilburg Beatle fan since: December 8th 1980, the day music died once again. Fave album: At the moment Revolver but tomorrow it may be Sgt.
