Karol Mikloš (born 1972) is a Slovak recording artist. A former member of indie pop band known as Shellwoy (1992–1993), recorded his own self-titled demo EP in 1994.[1] His full-length debut The Same Mist Here (1997), saw its official release on Gregor Agency – G.A. Records. The guitar-based work made under supervision by Ladislav Lučenič,[2][3] spawned a Grammy Slovakia-nomination as the New Artist.[3] Its electronic follow-up on Millenium Records Vis-à-vis (2002), received a Best Male Vocal Performance-nomination in favor of local Aurel Awards.[4] His most recent set with a more acoustic sound The Past of the Future (2008), was nominated for so-called Radio_Head Awards, for a change. The album issued Deadred Records with distribution through Wegart in Slovakia, and Starcastic Records in the Czech Republic.

Apart from performing and composing skills for his own, Mikloš has occasionally been involved in production, audio and mastering engineering, mixing and programming also for fellow artists.
