Track of the Day: Little Dragon - 'High'

Today, Grammy-nominated band Little Dragon release their first new music since their critically- acclaimed 2014 album, Nabuma Rubberband. The song, entitled ‘High’, is a smouldering marriage of percolating electronics and the laid-back R&B melodies the band have become known for. The hazy, dream-like video was shot in the band’s native country of Sweden and is available to watch BELOW.

The band have also announced a full run of North American dates – their first shows since 2014 – for this spring and summer, starting with a highly anticipated appearance at this year’s Coachella festival. They will be supported on select dates by Glass Animals and Goldlink.

Little Dragon enjoyed unparalleled success with their last LP; the dexterous, futuristic sounding Nabuma Rubberband, which soared to #1 on the Independent & Record Store Charts on release before earning the band their first Grammy nomination for Best Dance/Electronic Album.
