Aquanote is the solo project of studio hand and expressive songwriter <a href="spotify:artist:41OL2FsXcyizCFQhjFaRgo">Gabriel René</a>. The son of a West Coast jazzman, <a href="spotify:artist:41OL2FsXcyizCFQhjFaRgo">René</a> listened to much jazz-funk and soul while growing up. His first direct musical experience came in 1995, when he formed <a href="spotify:artist:3GeU43m5eWxLSfdJQ0s5h9">Soulstice</a> (with <a href="spotify:artist:10zhraUsGsnA01EzkQ9N4u">Andy Caldwell</a>), a San Francisco band that blended programmed house with the live feel of acid jazz. The group released an album on the Om label (Illusion), and <a href="spotify:artist:41OL2FsXcyizCFQhjFaRgo">René</a> began writing songs for a solo project. He was then signed to the like-minded label Naked Music, which specializes in a fusion of jazz, funk, and house. For his Aquanote debut, 2002's The Pearl, <a href="spotify:artist:41OL2FsXcyizCFQhjFaRgo">René</a> called on an array of musician contacts he'd made around San Francisco, as well as a half-dozen female vocalists. ~ John Bush, Rovi
