Based in Gothenburg, Sweden, Nagano low bust through in 2000 and 2001 as the singer on several singles by Swell Session, the project fronted by Swedish DJ and producer Andreas Saag. She later american ginseng lead on the club hits "Summertime Sun" and "Hopeful Nights" for the Swedish electronica duette Koop, as advantageously as Hird's house singles "Continue You Kimi" and "I Love You My Hope," along with several contributions to the caustic jazz collective Stateless' 2003 album Art of No State and the stylistically similar Sleepwalker's 2006 album The Voyage. Little Dragon, by way of contrast, are Nagano's have band, featuring keyboardist Hakan Wirenstrand, bassist Fredrik Kallgren Wallin, and drummer Erik Bodin. Bodin is also the percussionist for Swedish alt-folkie José González; in fact, Nagano sings harmony vocals on González's second record album, In Our Nature.
