Little Dragon - Live at the Eurockéennes | Qwest TV







Carried by the voice and energy of Yukimi Nagano, the Swedish electro downtempo group Little Dragon seizes the stage of the festival Les Eurockéennes to defend their fourth album *Nabuma Rubberband*, released in 2014. Their music, a clever mix of electronic and organic, never lets itself be contained, reinvents itself and evolves with each album much like a living creature. Numerous collaborations with renowned artists such as David Sitek, Damon Albarn, Raphael Saadiq, or SBTRKT, to name a few, demonstrate this eclecticism that enriches their music with both power and depth. They strive for sound directly connected to the heart and emotions, as they describe it in their own words! That explains why the spectator takes so much pleasure in seeing them perform.

In a long silk kimono, Yukimi starts this live with "Please Turn,” one of the hits from their album *Rituals Union* (2011), which gently electrifies the audience, and prepares them for a dancing and sweat-inducing set! For a little over an hour, Little Dragon takes advantage of the arrival of the sun to chain electro-soul, pop and trip-hop nuggets, ultimately giving way to heady synth solos. We immediately want to follow Yukimi Nagano and loosen our shoes, put them aside, letting ourselves be carried away.
