AnnaGrace

2000–2008: Ian van Dahl

After the departure of singer Martine Theeuwen (a.k.a. Marsha)^[4] and her onstage replacement Cindy Martens,^[5] Coenen was later selected by executive producers Christophe Chantzis and Erik Vanspauwen to be the new front woman and singer of Ian van Dahl.^[6] In the early stages of her involvement, Coenen mimed the original vocals of Theeuwen when performing the project's debut hit "Castles in the Sky" onstage. She later became involved in the songwriting with the producers and recorded vocals for the followup singles ("Will I?," "Reason," "Try") and the debut album Ace. The single "Castles In The Sky" was already a major success reaching No.3 on UK charts while also spending seven weeks in the top 10 in the summer of 2001. The single had also managed to crossover onto American Charts and reached the Billboard Hot 100 where it peaked at No.91.^[7] The followup singles recorded with Coenen became major hits on the UK singles charts as well.^[8] The singles "Will I?" peaked at No.5, "Reason" at No.8 and "Try" at No.15. The Ace album reached No.7 in the UK where it achieved Gold status.^[9]

In 2004, Coenen recorded vocals for the second Ian van Dahl album Lost & Found. Belgian producers Peter Luts and David Vervoort officially joined Chantizs and Vanspauwen for the production of the second album. The album singles "I Can't Let You Go," "Believe," "Where Are You Now?" and "Inspiration" were all successes but still failed to match the massive commercial sales of the previous singles from the first album. The final singles Coenen recorded with Ian van Dahl ("Movin On" and "Just a Girl") were released in the late-2000s.
