    CORE OF SOUL is a band whose style was very fresh and therefore hard to describe. They combine pop/rock with electronic and acoustics, their sound was nothing short of ethereal. They released 9 singles and 6 albums before they called it quits on March 24th, 2006.

    The band started in January 1998 when three teenage friends from an international school in Osaka, Fukiko Nakamaru (vo), Rui Song (Guitar/Bass), and Keisuke Iizuka (programming) formed a band (shortly named CORE OF SUN). In November of the following year, they participated in the TEEN MUSIC FESTIVAL which earned them attention despite not winning the main prize.

    In 2001, their two track demo-tape which consisted of "Full Moon Prayer" and "Angel" quickly sold out, despite only being available in the Kansai region. Not much time later, they signed with TOSHIBA-EMI and released their first major single "Photosynthesis".

    Their first album, "Natural Beauty" was released in February of 2002 and despite only being moderately successful is still heralded as a great album.

    March 14th, 2003 performed in Austin, Texas at the SXSW festival and were received well which perhaps led to their other overseas performances.

    On the final day of their ONE LOVE, ONE DAY, ONE LIFE!, the band officially disbanded in their hometown of Osaka, citing natural evolution. Fukiko continues to release music under her solo project, "LOVE". · close
