On his latest album, MIKA worked alongside longtime producer Greg Wells (Katy Perry, Adele) and explored his many influences: “from piano bar troubadour (‘All She Wants’, ‘Good Wife’) to anthemic boulevardier (‘Good Guys’) to disco diva (lead single ‘Talk About You’),” writes Billboard.
MIKA first burst onto the scene in 2007 with the single ‘Grace Kelly, a soaring single that displayed his vocal prowess and scaled the charts, turning his debut album, Life in Cartoon Motion, multiplatinum. He went on to release three more LPs: The Boy Who Knew Too Much, in 2009, The Origin of Love, in 2012 (including ‘Popular Song’, a collaboration with then emerging start Ariana Grande) and No Place in Heaven, in 2015.
Since winning the Brit Award for British Breakthrough Act in 2008, the piano-playing, multilinguistic star has been nominated for Grammy awards, MTV Europe Music Awards, served as a judge on France’s The Voice for six years and hosts his own BBC2 Radio show ‘The Art of Song’.
