"Exhaustion," "creative differences," "desire to spend more time with family," call it what you will, René Risqué and the Art Lovers are, for the time being, pulling back from public life.

Of course, like The Eagles and Fleetwood Mac before them, René Risqué and the Art Lovers may one day return to the stage. For the right price.

If you think you have what it takes to make René Risqué and the Art Lovers feel great about playing together again, please contact Mr. Fernet Branca.
