Dionysos is a French rock band formed in 1993 in Valence, Drôme. The band consists of five members known as Babet, Guillaume, Mathias, Miky Biky and Rico.

Their latest studio album is Monsters in Love. Their first release, Happening Songs, was entirely in English, Babet wasn't part of the band yet. In 1999 they released Haïku which brought the band in to the public eye, mainly thanks to the success of the single Coccinelle.

Almost all Dionysos songs evoke a surreal world, in part due to the influence of Tim Burton and Roald Dahl on the group. The song La Métamorphose de Mister Chat tells the story of a ladys' man transformed into a cat, and the story of the group's biggest hit (Song for Jedi) is encapsulated in the English chorus, "When I was a child, I was a Jedi".

Babet is currently working at the same time on her own solo album (released on March 5, 2007), and career. And the lead singer, Mathias Malzieu, is also working on other projects such as the career of Olivia Ruiz (his partner), and his other hobby: writing (published 2 books in 2002 and 2005).

The group is currently working on a 6th studio album, which should be released fall 2007, a soundtrack for the new book of Mathias La mécanique du coeur.
