Born in London but Greek Cypriot by origin, Helena Costas studied violin from ages 7 to 13, then taught herself guitar and keyboards. As she became an adult, her mission came into focus. She wrote songs relentlessly, learned the art of production, and gained confidence as a performer as she played gigs around London.
Costas first began working with Danger Mouse in 2003, after sending him some home demos.[1] Their debut album appeared on Team Love Records in 2009, and features Scott Spillane (of Neutral Milk Hotel) on brass instruments.
The new single, 'Mind of Gold' was released on October 3rd 2011, and includes the b-side tracks, 'Handful of Nothing' and Iron Maiden cover 'Infinite Dreams.'
New album May Cause Side Effects will be released on October 31st, 2011
