Since the inception, the band has been instrumental in setting up trends of blending ‘eastern melodies with western harmonics’ in original Bengali music. The band has become very popular both for their original Bangla songs as well as for Anglo-American cover songs, which they perform in various stage shows. “Renaissance” presently is composed of:
• Naquib - composer, vocals & keyboards
• Pilu - composer, vocals & drums
• Reza - lead guitar
• Prof. Imran - vocals & guitar
• Tanim - Bass Guitar
• Hablu - Percussion

‘Renaissance’ has released four audio albums—“Renaissance” (1988), "Tritiyo Bishwo" (1993), "Ekatturer Renaissance" (1998) and “Ekush Shotokey Renaissance” (2004). “Ekush Shotokey Renaissance” was awarded the ‘Best Band Album of the year 2004’ by “CityCell-Channel i Music Award”

‘Renaissance’ is one of the few bands in Bangladesh that has been extremely popular in both the Bengali and English market segments. With about 400 Anglo-American songs in its repertoire, ‘Renaissance’ is a tight ‘R&B’, ‘Reggae’ oriented band that can make a dance floor sizzle and also plays ‘Jazz’, ‘Blues’ sets occasionally.
