Hibou is the musical project of Seattle-based musician Peter Michel, who gained recognition for his dreamy, synth-infused indie pop sound. Emerging in the early 2010s, Michel began producing music in his bedroom, blending lush guitar melodies with ethereal vocals to create a nostalgic, yet fresh auditory experience. After releasing his self-titled debut album under the Hibou moniker in 2015, he has continued to captivate audiences with his introspective lyrics and evocative soundscapes, solidifying his position in the indie music scene.
