Dragonette Setlist Read More I saw this trio Dragonette last year and was rather impressed with this Canadian female-fronted electro-pop band.
It would seem that the Juno-award-winning band is co-headlining a tour .…

The Canadian electronic band Dragonette made a stop at the First Ave Mainroom Wednesday night along with Australia's The Presets and the LA-based DJ’s Classixx.
From the time Dragonette came on stage to when they left, they were a highenergy electro-pop powerhouse. Playing songs mostly off their Bodyparts album (Universal Music Canada) released this past September, and mixing in some songs off their past albums they gave a great performance.
Martina Sorbara (vocals) danced throughout the whole show, and her powerful energy was felt through the crowd and they were jumping right along with her. During "Hello", the crowd belted every line of the song she did with French producer/DJ Martin Solveig.
They will be continuing their co-headlining US tour with The Presets. The Australian duo broke into the mainstream with their #1 album, Apocalypso, spawning six hit singles: "My People", "This Boy's in Love", "Talk Like That", "Yippiyo-Ay", "If I Know You" and "Kicking and Screaming". The Presets may have another hit album on their hands with their third full-length album, Pacifica, especially after their single, "Ghosts", was recently awarded "Single of the Year" (Reader's Choice) for the 4th annual Australian Rolling Stone Awards.
