1) Bijou is a rock French band, formed in 1976, that played in the punk festival of Mont-de-Marsan in the summer. They played a couple of songs live with Serge Gainsbourg in 1979, which made him want to play live again (he had not played live since 1964). They split in the early 80s, & made several come-backs since then.

2) Bijou is a Hungarian downtempo/chill-out band, which was formed in 2003. They have a minimal sound accompanied by the airy vocals of Szilvia Hártó, who's writing her own lyrics. Members of the band are: Zoltán Asztalos on drums, Leó Menyhárt on the guitar and András Koroknay on the bass guitar. The authentic flavour of their music is quite new to the Hungarian music scene – thanks to them, this blank point is now finally filled.
