Who is Miike Snow?
Miike Snow was formed in 2007 in Stockholm, Sweden. Band members Christian Karlsson and Pontus Winnberg were childhood friends who spent time playing in bands and working on various projects in studios throughout Gothenburg. Karlsson used to be a member of Swedish hip-hop band "Goldmine" who toured with The Fugees. After separate moves to Stockholm they reunited in 2000. In 2004, whilst working on writing a pop album for Britney Spears, the pair met the third band member, American songwriter Andrew Wyatt. Karlsson and Winnberg collaborated under the moniker Bloodshy & Avant, and enjoyed a significant amount of success as producers and songwriters. They have worked with artists such as Madonna, Kylie Minogue, Kelis and won a Grammy for Best dance recording for the track "Toxic" by Spears. The name Miike Snow is said to have come from one of their friends called Mike Snow with the spelling of Miike coming from the Japanese film directorTakashi Miike.
