Lineup and details for Little Dragon Ritual Union Tour - Liverpool on Wednesday 29th February 2012
2011 saw Little Dragon start the year off with a headlining tour of the U.S. and a performance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon in March, thanks to a recommendation from superfan Questlove of the Roots. In May, LittleDragon appeared on the track Just Dont from Raphael Saadiqs Stone Rollin, a record some are already calling the album of the year. Big Boi and DJ Shadow called to invite the group to work on new music.
This July they will release Ritual Union, an album which finds futuristic trance like rhythms mixed with the soulful vibes of their debut LP colliding with the more upfront and danceable sounds of Machine Dreams. Lead single Nightlight sounds like a fevery hallucination in the dessert of sahara. Brush The Heat, is a dancefloor detonator with the most infectious cowbells since Jay-Z told us about his 99 Problems.
While their recordings are always impressive, it is in the live setting where the Dragon really comes alive. As if straight out of central casting, every Little Dragon show seems to bring out an unlikely mix of hip-hop heads in fitted caps, ravers, stoners, hipster kids, hippies, old goats ,middles aged panthers and studious musician types. I think thats kind of ideal, Yukimi says of Little Dragons eclectic fanbase. Thats how, if I wished for a crowd, I would want it.And no doubt, if that crowd could invent a band, Little Dragon is what they'd come up with.
