A modern-day purveyor of the traditional French chanson, Mickaël Miro's simple acoustic tales of love and warm gentle vocals neatly filled the void left by fellow chanteur <a href="spotify:artist:2Cx19OTMqa6gpz2l60cGG2">Jean-Jacques Goldman</a>'s ten-year absence. Born in Lyon in 1979, Miro, who used his late grandfather's name as a tribute, originally had no intentions of forging a music career, but after graduating from his hometown's university with a degree in business law, he moved to Paris, where he began to play in the city's jazz bars. Inspired by the likes of <a href="spotify:artist:5uo5NwSONVNfvSHHMQrHAv">Francis Cabrel</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:5skauLarl8sqqUFypECtP4">Michel Berger</a>, he started writing his own songs, and in 2007 provided vocals for Les Marguerites Contre Alzheimer's "J'y Etais Pas." After signing a deal with <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Mercury+Records%22">Mercury Records</a>, he supported <a href="spotify:artist:1uquUYtkdKei0zuhBY9P0t">Justin Nozuka</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:3FLS6y4AR3126l4D06V0ZD">Zazie</a> on their European tours, and in 2011 released his debut album, Juste Comme Ça, which featured hit single "L'Horloge Tourne" and the title track collaboration with Francophone singer/songwriter <a href="spotify:artist:1miK7RIscxXIgQgHQ0G7ch">Natasha St-Pier</a>. ~ Jon O'Brien, Rovi
