Little Dragon / Little Dragon (Koop & Yukimi Nagano school friends)
I know we have, and not too few, such music lovers. KOOP, Yukimi Nagano and her school friends... My recommended this month.
Gothenburg, Sweden is a hotbed of diverse and escalating musical talent. From the mighty Soundtrack of Our Lives to idiosyncratic songsmiths José González and Jens Lekman, through to the unpredictable pop styles from the likes of Love is All and Audrey, not to mention the infamous black metal scene, Gothenburg now boasts the dynamic, organically soulful pop sounds of Little Dragon. Featuring singular vocalist Yukimi Nagano (Koop, Hird, Jafrosax) and her close high school friends Erik Bodin (drums), Fredrick Kullgren (bass) and Hеkan Wirenstrand (keyboards), Little Dragon stepped into the spotlight with the release of their first double A-side single on Peacefrog (home to Jose and Findlay Brown), 'Twice'/'Test'. A former Rough Trade 'Single of the Week' and "universally hailed as a masterpiece of free thinking soul", according to One Week To Live.
