Mika Miko

Pre-dating many of the more famous graduates of Los Angeles' 'Smell Scene', Mika Miko formed in 2003 and garnered local popularity through a series of single releases before full debut C.Y.S.L.A.B.F. arrived in 2006 via Kill Rock Stars and Post Present Medium in 2006. While friends and contemporaries No Age and Abe Vigoda went onto fly the local flag abroad, the band released the 666 EP in '07, Sub Pop single series 'Sex Jazz' in '08 before eventually following up with We Be Xuxa in May 2009.
