History
= 2000–2003: Early years
=Before Miranda!, the musicians Gori Leva, Alejandro Sergi and Juliana Gattas formed a trio called Los 3 Lirios, where Leva and Sergi were programmers and Gattas the singer, reversing jazz songs in an electronic style. For their presentations, which were held at Cemento, Sergi wrote the first song called "Imán", and received positive reviews, including from guitarist Leandro Fuentes. Months later, they formed the band. In 2001, Sergi teamed up with Gattas, Fuentes and Bruno de Vincenti to form Miranda!, labeling their style as melodramatic electropop. Named after Argentinian actor Osvaldo Miranda, the group finally met the actor in December 2002 during the Buen Dia Arriba Festival in Palermo.
Their popularity grew around the Buenos Aires underground music circuit, based on their peculiar music, style and looks. Their unique live performances, in which the band members "acted out" the lyrics of their songs, gained them a great number of followers, as well as a number of prizes in such publications as the Argentine version of the Rolling Stone magazine, which named them the Revelation Band of 2002. In November of the same year they released Es Mentira, their first album which would spawn five singles: "Bailarina," "Imán," "Tu Juego," "Agua" and "Romix." It was published by the independent label Secsy Discos, with the collaboration of the Locomotion television channel, where the music videos of the singles were published. Their presentations were described as "glamorous and melodramatic", and ranked them as "the most outstanding group of the Buenos Aires indie-electronic scene", receiving the nickname "the monster of the under".
In May 2003, Nicolás Grimaldi ("Monoto") joined the group as bassist. That year, Miranda! achieved their first nominations at the MTV Video Music Awards Latinoamérica, in the Best Independent Artist and Best New Artist - Argentina categories. After their first appearance on MTV, they offered their first concert in a theater, at the Ateneo de Buenos Aires, with the special participation of singer Gustavo Cerati.
= 2004–2006: Sin Restricciones
=The band's second album, Sin Restricciones, was released on September 21, 2004, and was described as the mainstream breakthrough of the band, with hits like "Yo Te Diré" or "Don," which would go on to be one of the most downloaded ringtones in the world by 2005. Other singles out of this album were "Navidad," "El Profe," "Uno los Dos" and "Traición." It was produced by Eduardo Schmidt and Pablo Romero, from the band Árbol. The album was released by the Secsy Discos label with the collaboration of Locomotion, mixed at Panda studios in Buenos Aires and mastered in Los Angeles, United States, by Tom Baker. It was launched and presented on September 21 at the Ateneo de Buenos Aires, and due to high demand, they had to add one more show for that same day. Sin Restricciones reached number 11 on the Mexican Album Chart and was certified Platinum in Argentina, Colombia and México.
Miranda received seven MTV VMALA nominations between 2004 and 2005 for their work on their second album, winning two categories; Best Alternative Artist and Best Artist—South. They also won the Best Pop Group Album category for the first time at the Premios Gardel. In December they signed with Pelo Music. After the media diffusion throughout Latin America, they performed a concert at the Gran Rex theater in Buenos Aires, a presentation that was recorded to be edited on a DVD that came out months later under the name En Vivo Sin Restricciones, which included the majority of their songs plus a song that was never recorded in a studio, but that was part of their live performances during his early years, called "Salgamos". In the month of September 2005 they opened for Moby in Santiago. They also performed in Paraguay for the Pilsen Rock in front of more than 45,000 people, together with the groups 2 Minutos and Attaque 77.
In January 2006, the band participated in the annual Cosquín Rock festival, together with artists such as Patricio Rey y sus Redonditos de Ricota, Las Pelotas, La mancha de Rolando, among others. In February they were recognized with all the awards at the Viña del Mar International Song Festival (Antorcha de Plata, Antorcha de Oro and Gaviota de Plata).
Between albums, on July 20, 2006, they released their first EP titled Quereme! Tributo a las Telenovelas, containing three new tracks that were formerly the theme songs of successful telenovelas from Argentina; "Quiéreme… tengo frío" from Piel Naranja, starring Arnaldo André and Marilina Ross in 1975; "Una lágrima sobre el teléfono" from Una voz en el teléfono, starring Carolina Papaleo and Raúl Taibo in 1990; and "Esa extraña dama" from the telenovela with the same name, starring Luisa Kuliok and Jorge Martínez. These songs were performed at the 2006 Martín Fierro Awards TV show, and then released as a single CD in Argentina.
