Dragonette
I Get Around

Mercury

WE SAY

Dragonette are a Canadian outfit fronted by married couple Dan Kurtz and Martina Sorbara. Martina can also be heard on the next Basement Jaxx next single, Take Me Back to Your House. With the help of Neil Harris, manager of Scissor Sisters (whom they have supported, along with Duran Duran and New Order), Dragonette recently signed with Mercury. They are currently based in London recording their debut album. Making a hook-laden brand of dirty electro pop, what we've heard so far is fun, instantly likeable and it should work well over here. JF London Gig: 20 Oct, 93 Feet East E1
