Marcus WEYMAERE (b.1965, Charleroi). Education : graduated from the Royal Conservatory of Music of Brussels (Jazz).

Marcus has been a renowed and appreciated value on the European music scene since the 90s. He toured Belgium, France and Canada with a number of famous bands such as Cowboys and Aliens, Stella (The Prestidigitatour with over 50 concerts), Gorki, Beverly Jo Scott, Barbara Dex, William Dunker, Admiral Freebee, Guy Swinnen a.o.
Marcus is also a much wanted session musician due to the variety of styles which he manages and his uniform play which he displays in his musical workplays as no other. Some would say he once swallowed a metronome. You can hear Marcus' work on CD's by Beverly Jo Scott (Divine Rebel - Cut and Run), Barbara Dex (Blue Eyed Girl), Derek (In the Red River) and Stella (AB Rose). You can also see him in action on the live concert DVD's of AB Rose (Stella) and Cut and Run (Beverly Jo Scott). Apart from working hard and being able to give a more than decent performance on the bass, Marcus takes care of his nine-year old son and enjoys both eating and cooking delicious food.

Marcus is The Voice’s drummer.
