History

Marbell was formed in 2006 with half-Japanese half-American model Mar on vocals and Tsunoda Takanori as guitarist, producer and arranger.[2] They were later joined by bassist Azusa and drummer yu-ya before releasing their debut album Sister on May 14, 2008.[2] The band toured throughout Japan, mainly performing live in Tokyo, but also performed at the 2008 Otakon convention in the United States.[3] Four of the songs from their album were performed by the band on May 3, 2008, on the first day of the hide memorial summit,[4] which gave Marbell the opportunity to play for a huge audience at Ajinomoto Stadium and to honor hide, whom Tsunoda was greatly inspired by.[2] The band was inactive throughout 2009.

On March 10, 2010, it was officially announced that Marbell had disbanded after only four years together.[5] Vocalist Mar has since begun a solo career under the name MAA.[6]
