Timeline

2020

As of May 2020, Bovio announced that she is cancer free.

2019

After months of inactivity in the social networks, Bovio announced in December 2019 that she was diagnosed with cervical cancer and was under treatment.

2018

On February 9, 2018, she will perform a concert as a solo artist with Van Ittersum, as a part of an event dedicated to singer-songwriters.

Bovio started the recording of her next solo album in January 15, 2018. She announced its title, Through Your Eyes, on June 26, with a planned release in fall. Self-described as "melancholic chamber music", the album is "inspired by 11 different topics, provided to me by 11 different people from all around the world."

2017

She later performed at the first official Ayreon concerts in September 2017, titled Ayreon Universe. One of the performances will be released as a live album in 2018, titled Ayreon Universe – The Best of Ayreon Live; she performed lead vocals on selected songs, and backing vocals as a part of the choir on others.

After performing at MaYan live shows regularly since 2014, Bovio officially joined the band as a full-time member on June 21, 2017. She stated "I've had the pleasure of joining the guys and gals of MaYaN on stage for quite a while now, and every time we've played together it's been a blast! Not only are they all great musicians, but also really cool people to be around, über nice and funny as hell! So I'm very happy to officially be part of the MaYaN family, and I'm looking forward to lots of new adventures with the band!"

On January 24, 2017, Bovio released a second version of the album, titled Unprecedented – The Piano Sessions, with the string quartet replaced by Van Ittersum. This version, considered a new studio album by Bovio, was also recorded in a single day, and features four bonus tracks: an original song, two covers, and a version of "The One" from the original album with lyrics in Spanish.

However, when the recording of the band's debut album In This Moment We Are Free – Cities started, Bovio and Van Giersbergen "wanted to take very different directions when it came to the sound and approach of the vocals". After failing to find a compromise that would satisfy both creatively, it was decided that Bovio would leave the band, as the two were afraid that doing otherwise would leave both regretful and hurt their friendship. Bovio made her departure official on April 11, 2017, stating "I'm truly devastated, because I'm a huge fan of Anneke and every single member of the band; they're all incredibly sweet people, as well as top notch musicians. Plus, the songs are so fantastic… this is going to be a revolutionary album! But I have to follow my heart and choose for what I think in the future will bring me (and the rest of the band) happiness, no matter how hard it feels right now. Anneke, Fer, Jord, Johan and Ed [her VUUR bandmates]: you guys are THE BEST. I'd wish you luck but you don't need it, you are going to ROCK this world".

In December 2017, she attended a concert of the band as a fan in Lille, France.

On December 9, 2017, Bovio graduated as vocal coach from the Universal Voice Institute in Amsterdam, with a score of 93 out of 100. In January 2018, she became a vocal teacher at the Metal Factory, one of the Netherlands' top MBO schools and the world's first heavy metal-based music school.

On April 2017, progressive rock webzine Progsphere included Marcela Bovio in their "Top 10 Female Singers in Prog Rock, Metal and Around" listing.

In September 2016, Bovio independently released her first solo album, Unprecedented, a classical album consisting of original songs she wrote; it was followed by Through Your Eyes in 2018. She joined MaYaN as a full-time member in 2017, after regular collaborations with the band since 2013. She regularly acts as backing vocalist for other bands, notably Epica and The Gentle Storm, and was also one of the founding members of VUUR in 2016.

In April 2016, the band announced via Facebook that they would be separating at the end of the year, stating "Over the past eleven years we've had the time of our lives playing in stages all over the world and sharing moments of joy on stage. But all good things come to an end, and we feel it's time to move on and search for new musical challenges. We're proud of everything we've achieved, with your help, and we want to end the band history on a high note instead of losing focus, interest and drive. Before parting ways as a band we will perform a few goodbye shows; we also want to record a DVD to serve as a memento of the good times we've had. [...] Once again, we'd like to express our eternal gratitude for the support you've given us all these years. All of us will continue to make music, one way or the other; so we still hope to see you soon on a stage near you. Thank you for being part of the wonderful adventure that has been Stream of Passion!"

The band released a live album entitled Memento later that year, and performed their final show on December 28, 2016.
