Simian is an English electro-rock band, best-known for their song "La Breeze", which was featured in the Peugeot 1007 commercial. The members are Simon William Lord, James Ellis Ford, Alex MacNaghten & James Anthony Shaw.

The band split up in 2005 with Ellis Ford and Shaw forming a splinter group Simian Mobile Disco. The new group is more dance oriented and are in demand as remixers. However in 2006 a single called "We Are Your Friends" was released on a reactivated Virgin label called Ten Records. This single was credited to Justice Vs Simian and started life as an entry in a remix competition that French dance duo Justice had entered.
