Little Dragon

Because so many electronic musicians only compose songs on computers, it's refreshing when bands are able to incorporate live instruments into electronic styled songs. The Swedish band Little Dragon does just that--plays drums, keys, bass and guitar in the confines of music that falls into the electronic genre. Clearly defined female vocals, provided by Japanese expat Yukimi Nagano, also help add a sense of urgency to many of the band's songs and lift the group above the plethora of other electro bands that are void of a lead singer.
