Born in Milan, siblings Daisy & Thomas moved to the UK in 2008 where they met and moved in with Englishmen Ben & Benji at University in the North East. Formed in 2010, the band cite French collectives Pony Pony Run Run, Phoenix and Breakbot as their biggest influences, as well as an unashamed love for pop favourites Uffie and Penguin Prison. M A U S I create blissful up-beat pop, that harnesses a carefree Rivieran edge and driving disco feel; that is no more present than in single ‘sol’.

Finally leading to ‘sol’ being snapped up for its official release on February 20th 2012 through Neon Gold approved US label All Things Go, accompanied by a LIGHTWAVES remix.
