Making the Case for Little Dragon

I have been spending a lot of time in the car as of late which is giving me a good chance to really dig into some new music. The album Machine Dreams (iTMS) from the Swedish group Little Dragon has been a distinct point of focus and enjoyment. Headed by the exquisite Yukimi Nagano (who was born and raised in Sweden by her Japanese father and American mother), the group blends musical influences to produce a fresh and beautiful sound. The track Feather stands out amongst a strong record and the band sounds great live. Little Dragon is currently on tour in the U.S., so check the schedule and go an see them. You won’t be disappointed.

Note Yuki’s dancing. Amazing.

Again, the dancing is almost as good as the music.
