Miami Horror are an electro-pop act from Melbourne, Australia with a disco-house throwback style. Miami Horror can refer to its producer, Benjamin Plant, or its four-piece live incarnation.
Influenced by dance-pop artists of the 1970s and 1980s such as Prince and ABBA, Plant first made a name for himself using the moniker Miami Horror with a series of remixes that include Stardust's "Music Sounds Better with You" and Tegan and Sara's "Walking with a Ghost", along with contemporary Australian acts such as the Midnight Juggernauts and Grafton Primary.
Plant began his music career playing house party and regular weekly Melbourne club nights such as Streetparty and Third Class. He has since remixed Pnau, The Presets, Bloc Party, Datarock and The Dirty Secrets. Miami Horror has also collaborated with Melbourne electro-pop group Gameboy/Gamegirl and produced Golden Ghetto Sex EP which featured the single "Sweaty Wet/Dirty Damp", a one-off single that became a left-field hit in the music blogosphere in 2007.
As Miami Horror, Plant made his commercial debut in 2008 with a five-track EP, Bravado, on Virgin Records. The EP features the song "Don't Be On with Her", for which a promotional video was released online. Miami Horror has since been signed to EMI Music for distribution in Australia and France.
Miami Horror's live show is augmented by Josh Moriarty (Peacocks, ex-Young & Restless) on guitar, DJ/producer Aaron Shanahan on drums, and Daniel Whitechurch on keys, guitar and bass guitar. The live incarnation of Miami Horror appeared at the Good Vibrations, 'Groovin The Moo' and Splendour in the Grass festivals in 2009. The band also supported indie pop act Friendly Fires on their Australian tour in July 2009. In 2009 they achieved commercial success with the single "Sometimes", released as a standalone single and receiving airplay on radio stations, as well as being played in the club circuit due to a remix by Sydney-based DJ Hook N Sling.
Lily Allen was supported by Miami Horror on their 2010 Big Day Out sideshow tour at Festival Hall.
Miami Horror are due to release their debut album in 2010, and the single entitled "Moon Theory" was released 16 April 2010 and available to purchase through The In Song website. The band is currently on their Moon Theory Tour, playing shows in most major Australian cities from May through to June.
The latest single "I Look to You" featuring Kimbra was premiered by Richard Kingsmill on triple j's '2010' new music show on Sunday July 27. The album Illumination is set for release on August 20.
