Close friends since high school, Yukimi Nagano, Fredrik Wallin, Håkan Wirenstrand and Erik Bodin have been making music together for most of their lives.
Little Dragon built their name the old-fashioned way: slowly and through word of mouth. They all began making music together as friends in high school. "Our way of spending time together was listening to, or playing music," Yukimi recalled of the days in the 1990s.
After moving in together at a Gothenburg art collective where they record all their albums, the group took the name Little Dragon-a reference to Yukimi's fiery countenance during recording sessions.
The impact of Little Dragon's first release, of which only 1000 copies were pressed, was felt immediately in England, where it became an underground classic and Rough Trade "single of the week". Thereafter Little Dragon produced their eponymous debut.
Their second album, "Machine Dreams", a more up-tempo set with '80s influences like Prince and Depeche Mode working their way into the mix, followed in 2009.
