Miou Miou
For the French actress, see Miou-Miou

Miou Miou is an East Bohemia indie pop band formed in the spring of 2003. Miou Miou’s music is characterized by girlish vocals in French, catchy lyrics, playfulness, repetitive elements, dynamic contrasts and searching for new sounds. Their music makes use of a wide range of instruments, from more unique instruments such as analog synthesizers, oscillators, vibraphone, harp and kantele; to more concert stuff like guitars, bass and drums.

Miou Miou’s debut album "La La Grande Finale" was released in the Czech Republic on the label Piper Records. Thirteen songs were recorded together with nearly 20 other musicians – ranging from punk bands to symphony orchestra. The album was mixed at JaMOR Studio by Ondrej Jezek. "LLGF" was released in North America on Minty Fresh Records (2008) and in Japan on Rallye Label (2007). MM has remixed tracks from artists such as Kiddycar, Kora et le Mechanix, Deerhoof or Longital. They have also composed music for the animated film "Banicti rytiri" (The Knights of Banik, dir. Tereza Rohackova) and music for the art installation "Space and Pendulum" by Eva Koupova. MM’s song "Rendre temps" was included on the soundtrack to the Slovak movie "O dve slabiky pozadu" (Two Syllables Behind, dir. Katarina Sulajova). MM shared stage with Nouvelle Vague, Masha Qrella, B.Fleischmann, Khoiba or Tata Bojs.

Miou Miou are currently working on a remix album titled "Électronique /MiouMixes/". Participation in the project promised producers like B.Fleischmann, Montag [disambiguation needed ], aus [disambiguation needed ], Lullatone, FilFla, Sawako, Moskitoo, Balún and others.
