Biography

Karol Miklos is a Slovak singer/songwriter. His full-length debut ‘The Same Mist Here’ was released on G.A. Records in 1997. The British sounding guitar-based work made under production by Laco Lučenič included the single ‘Tomorrow’ and spawned a Grammy Slovakia Award-nomination as the Best New Artist. Its follow-up ‘Vis-à-Vis’ released in 2002, which featured a more electronic sound and 5 songs in Slovak (including radio favourites ‘Všetko čo smieme chcieť’ and ‘Celý’), became a Best Male Vocal Performance-nominee in the local Aurel Awards. The third album, ‘The Past of the Future’ (2008), rated by many as his most mature work to date, presented a colourful return to live-band sound combined with organic electronic elements. The album released on Deadred/Starcastic was nominated for the so-called Radio Head Awards, both in the audience and critics’ choice categories. In 2017, Karol Miklos resurfaced with a new rejuvenated band and Poisoned EP containing 6 new tracks. This was followed by a collection of remixes Poisoned EP RMX a year later. In April 2020, Karol Miklos surprised with a unplanned corona-crisis inspired single entitled ‘Truth Is Most Days I’d Rather Stay Home'. In December 2020, another new track ‘Just Another Day’ appeared on the anniversary compilation of Karol’s label Deadred XX. On 24 June 2022, Karol Mikloš released "Awkward Laughter" , the first single preceding the release of his new album "This Side of Town" in September 2022.
