Timeline
Marc Storace (born 7 October 1951) is a Maltese-born Swiss musician.
His career in music started in the 1960s.
Inspired by the gigantic WOODSTOCK Festival in the late 1960s, Storace renamed The Boys to Cinnamon Hades.
Whilst retaining the popular Beatles "Abbey Road Medley" the band started to cover Iron Butterfly, Jimi Hendrix, and Hard Rock acts such as The Who, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath.
Wanting to follow his dream of making a career as a rock musician, Storace was forced to leave his island home.
His life in bands began at the age of fourteen (1965) when he made his first live performances with two local bands: Stonehenge Union (who covered the likes of the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Troggs and the Kinks) and: The Boys (who covered some of the same songs, as well as newer chart material containing more vocally challenging songs e.g. Aquarius from the Musical "HAIR").
Since he began singing professionally in the 1970s, his style and voice have remained largely the same, with a noticeable increase of character, through maturity and years of live and studio experience.
He played a major role in the Swiss-German films Anuk and Handyman, in which he acted, as well as contributed his writing and singing to songs for both the film's soundtracks.
He moved to London in 1970.
Further on in his career, after joining Krokus, many people who heard Storace sing thought that he sounded like Bon Scott of AC/DC.
He did not take this as a compliment at the time, saying that, with all respect to Bon, he had his own singing identity (proof of this is on ballads and other songs he recorded with TEA & KROKUS) Storace was later approached (by a production company used by both AC/DC and KROKUS at the time) to audition for the frontman job with AC/DC after Scott's death, but Krokus was enjoying a fast increase in success whilst, at that point in time, AC/DC was not that huge, so Storace preferred to stay with his new bandmates.
At the end of 1971, Storace joined Swiss progressive hard rock band TEA.
With them, he toured Europe with big acts such as Queen, Nazareth,or The (Ginger) Baker Gurvitz Army; and released three studio albums: TEA, The Ship and Tax Exiles.
All were produced by Dieter Dierks, at that time the man behind the Scorpions.
For a while, TEA became Switzerland's international rock Flagship, performing as far as Hamburg, London, Wales, Glasgow, Naples and even Malta.
In 1976, TEA performed their last tour, taking Krokus on-the-road as supporting act.
The seed was sown for what followed later on.
Meanwhile, he returned to London and formed the band Eazy Money.
Their song "Telephone Man" was included on a Metal-Music-Compilation album called Metal for Muthas Vol.2.
In 1979, he received a call from Krokus founder Chris von Rohr, who told him they were looking for a new singer and invited Storace for a "weekend jam" in Switzerland.
One exciting long weekend session later, Storace decided to join Chris, Tommy, Fern and Freddie in their quest for success.
He is most noted for his position as the lead singer and songwriter of the Swiss hard rock band Krokus from 1980.
Before joining Krokus, he sang with the Swiss progressive rock band TEA.
He has also since undertaken a solo project, duets, an acoustical project, and many guest slots.
He also had some close encounters with the classical meets rock world and has worked with a few other rock acts as writer and a singer.
Storace has a high pitched raunchy voice, making him a very distinct vocalist, and has been compared, according to most music-journalists, to AC/DC's former lead singer Bon Scott or Led Zeppelin's Robert Plant in terms of vocal style.
In 1980, Storace recorded and released his debut album with Krokus, Metal Rendez-vous.
It became Krokus's first big International hit album, the first to make the Gold & Platinum Status(today 4 x Platinum).
With Storace on board, Krokus's success increased dramatically, and from then until 1988 they toured extensively, mostly in the United States, Canada and Europe, with tours lasting up to nine months, as well as releasing a further six studio albums (Hardware, One Vice at a Time, Headhunter, The Blitz, Change of Address and Heart Attack) and one live album (Alive and Screamin').
It was an intense long period of constant writing, recording and touring without a break.
A physically demanding period spent mostly in rehearsal-rooms, recording-studios, hotel-rooms and tour-buses, and all for the common goal of staying in business rocking their fans.
During all this time Storace kept his residence in London.
Krokus went their ways in the summer of 1988.
In 1994, Storace and Fernando von Arb re-formed the band, and a Reunion Tour commenced with a reformed "One Vice At A Time " formation, but with Mané Maurer replacing Chris von Rohr on bass, since he was busy producing Swiss Rockers Gotthard at that time.
The turn-out for their Concerts was satisfying, so in 1995, Krokus released another studio album, To Rock or Not to Be.
The year 2002 saw Krokus, with an altered line-up to that of the 1988 hiatus and 1994 return releasing "Rock The Block".
As of January 2019, Storace was still active in rock projects as well as his "ongoing" semi-acoustic one.
Krokus embarked on their "Farewell Tour" that April.
Born as Mark Anthony Storace Crockford, one of six children to Anthony Storace and Edna Crockford on the Mediterranean island of Malta, Storace taught himself to sing at a fairly young age.
