Brothers Ron and Russell Mael from Los Angeles, USA have been making diverse music since 1969 under various incarnations of Sparks. In 1979 they ditched the guitars and keyboards of glam geek rock and started working with Italian producer Giorgio Moroder, beginning a love affair with electronic music.
Since then they have collaborated with a variety of artists including Finitribe, Les Rita Mitsouko, Erasure, Faith No More and Franz Ferdinand. Their innovative approach to music has earned them a dedicated fan base and critical acclaim throughout their career.
With their unique blend of genres and unmistakable style, Sparks continue to push boundaries in the world of music. Whether it's through their captivating live performances or their thought-provoking lyrics, this iconic duo remains an influential force in the industry.

BMG Rights Management is a multinational label that was established as a joint venture between Bertelsmann AG and Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. It operates under the name BMG Chrysalis in the USA, UK, and Sweden, following its acquisition of Chrysalis plc. In 2012, Bertelsmann bought out Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co.'s share of the company after an unsuccessful attempt to acquire EMI's recorded-music assets. While BMG Rights Management is the successor of the original Bertelsmann Music Group (BMG), it has undergone significant changes and now operates independently with no connection to its former incarnation.
