UNRULY CHILD Signs With FRONTIERS RECORDS; New Album Due In 2010

September 28, 2009

Former KING KOBRA/SIGNAL/UNRULY CHILD vocalist Marcie Free (known before her sex-change operation as Mark Free) has announced that UNRULY CHILD will return with a brand new album in early 2010 on Frontiers Records. According to Marcie, all of the band's original members — Bruce Gowdy (guitar),Jay Schellen (drums),Guy Allison (keyboards) an Free — have "agreed to come together for another record."

A short video clip of Free (pictured below) signing the Frontiers contract on September 26, 2009 can be viewed below.

The production will start in October in Los Angeles under the direction of Gowdy.

The CD will include eleven newly written songs which will bring back the glorious sound of the band's debut album with a "21st century flavor." It will be the first LP to feature the vocals of Free in more than a decade.

Gowdy stated, "We all look forward to making this eventful record."

MelodicRock.com webmaster Andrew McNeice commented on the news: "I know this announcement brings forward as many questions as it does answers, so let me answer the biggest one. Yes, Mark Free had a sex change several years ago — most are well aware of this and have shown Marcie a great deal of respect for the courageous move."

He continued, "The next question is the voice — can Marcie still sing? Of course! You better believe it! I have been in constant contact with Marcie over the last two years and as recently as a few months back heard some vocal work that proves that Marcie has lost none of the magic and the voice is as strong and vibrant as ever! Despite the sex change, Marcie's voice remains exactly as we all remember Mark Free's incredible voice was in its prime. So there is plenty to look forward to with this announcement."
