    Artist History
    "Lee Curreri is the reason I got my first keyboard."-Hans Zimmer, Academy Award winning composer. A revolutionary producer of vocalists, Lee is also known as an innovative, inspired musician and composer. Obviously charmed with pop-culture recognition as "Bruno" from the hit movie and TV series Fame, Lee graciously acknowledges this but now prefers to affect that culture from behind the scenes. Some credits include: producing Natalie Cole on Good To Be Back, scoring commercials for Nike & Microsoft and scoring/composing for the TV series Chicago Hope, Dangerous Minds and Special Ops Force. Lee took clues from all these experiences when conceptualizing Aquabox, igniting its momentum and giving it his soul.
    Group Members
    Comprised of musical evolutionists Gavin Christopher, Anzu Cristina, Lee Curreri and Gyrl Frend, Aquabox "the group" and Aquabox "the album" are both truly progressive and multi-dimensional. Drawing from each member's talents, the music is Space Hop - a rhythmic conglomeration of retro-funk, soul and trip-hop blended with strong elements of drum'n'bass. The group says, "before you find this music in mass media you should look for it in real life . . . because the evolution will not be televised."
