Electro-pop group Miranda! were formed in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 2001. Led by singer/songwriter Alejandro Sergi, the group also consists of Julianna Gattas (backing vocals), Lolo Fuentes (guitar), Bruno De Vicenti (programming), and Nicolas Grimaldi (bass). Coming up through the electronica scene playing small concerts and parties, Miranda! soon developed a reputation as one of the better groups in the sugar-pop and dance world. Showmanship became the bedrock for the success of Miranda!, who became known for their outlandish apparel and stage antics. The group took its name from silver screen-era actor Osvaldo Miranda, star of the 1937 film #Los Muchachos de Antes No Usaban Gomina.
