MIRIAM has been founded in year 1998 (under the name “Windigo”, renamed in 1999 as MIRIAM) by Daniela Bruno (vocals, bass), Carlo Bucciarelli (synthesizers, guitar) and Francesco Sordini (piano, keyboards).
The name MIRIAM has been chosen as a tribute to one of the band's favorite cult movies, “The Hunger” (Tony Scott, 1983), featuring David Bowie and Catherine Deneuve in the role of two metropolitan vampires. On the other hand, under the Roman Empire, this name used to mean something like “sea waterdrop”, which fits perfectly the band's tastes, for water themes and colors.
During the last decade MIRIAM developed its own style, a cool mix of electronica and new wave taken to an upper level by the enchanting, subtle and etheral vocals of Daniela Bruno.
While releasing the second promotional CD, MIRIAM incorporated an additional element - Massimo Bandiera - not in touch any longer with the rest of the band, and signed for a label - Decadance - which produced the latest 2 albums.
The current band discography features 4 titles, and will probably end at this point, at least for the "When Beauty Is Invisible" line-up.
1. Arabesque (1999, promo CD, 9 tracks)
2. Im Nebel (2000, promo CD, 10 tracks)
3. Scents (2002, official release, 10 tracks)
4. When Beauty Is Invisible (2007, 11 tracks)
Currently Daniela Bruno and Carlo Bucciarelli are active with a new project whose name is MIRIAM VTM (Vanishing Terrestrial Music, www.miriamvtm.com); in addition, they manage the official MIRIAM website www.miriam-music.com; their purpose is to help fans and supporters worldwide keep in contact with MIRIAM and MIRIAM music, while being constantly informed about the band's evolution and the new band founders artistic experiences.
With the new project, Daniela and Carlo will release a new promotional album whose title will be "The Mystery of Elle".
Besides the original purpose, to create it as a simple EP to celebrate the band's first decade, the plan has changed and "The Mystery of Elle" will be a new full-breadth and full-length album by the MIRIAM core founders.
SCENTS
First official MIRIAM release, it gathers the best songs from the two previous promotional albums, enhanced and enriched after a deep re-arrangement and re-mixing work.
Besides the title track, a number of mesmerizing episodes in the form of pure gems of beauty: "Space White Stones", "Alive", "The minutes tale"...

Difendo colpevole... Ma oso credere che la versione 2.0 di myspace mi darà la calma e la discrezione per lasciare il mio cuore picchiare in tutta libertà.
Cara Dani, non ritorno! Avevo bisogno di rinascere di nuovo... So questo è stupido .
Ma bien chère Daniela, Je garde auprès de moi la douceur de ton visage et la si pénétrante clarté de ton regard...
Avec tout mon coeur,
