Interview: Little Dragon
We chat with Little Dragon ahead of their time in Australia with the Laneway festival.. Little Dragon's fourth album Nabuma Rubberband was a fiery piece of electronica mashed with the haunting vocals of Yukimi Nagano. 2014 has been an exciting year for Little Dragon as they have toured all over the world but have sadly only played two shows in Australia.
