Yukimi: “Winter Is Not Dead”

You’ll recognize the voice within the first few notes…  It’s the signature sound of Little Dragon’s celebrated vocalist Yukimi, and there will be more to enjoy as she puts the finishing touches on her solo album debut For You (set for release on March 28). We share “Winter Is Not Dead,” inspired by Scandinavia’s long, dark winters. Yukimi states what it's like to live there: “The lack of light brings many of us down. At the same time, underground, life thrives. Microbes stay busy breaking down organic matter, recycling nutrients and improving the soil, quietly preparing for spring. I also grow during my personal winter seasons, even though things might feel dead on the surface. Wheels turn as I transform and move through it getting ready for spring and summer.”
