The band started pumping out singles from the disc in May, and it's not surprising that two of them are found towards the beginning of the record. It begins very promisingly with the title track and the banjo-sampling...

Dragonette As Sexy And Sassy As Ever

in
By Sheena Lyonnais (CHARTattack) October 9, 2009 3:21 pm
Life became a dance party as soon as I stepped foot into The Mod Club.

He was a welcome departure from the usual iPod deejay posse, but he wasn...

Dragonette — Galore

in
By Shannon Whibbs (CHARTattack) October 2, 2007 1:49 pm
This is what happens when a Canuck folk singer and electro artist — both toiling in the semi-obscurity — get married, move to the U.K., form a band and decide to go totally commercial while having as much fun as possible. Martina Sorbara reinvents herself as a naughty pop tart while hubby Dan Kurtz (The New Deal) along with Will Stapleton and Joel...

Dragonette — "Gone Too Far"

in
By CHARTattack Staff August 13, 2009 3:49 pm
Dragonette's music is certainly danceable, but you probably wouldn't line dance to them. The Toronto band have changed that with the video for "Gone Too Far," which uses clips from 1980's Urban Cowboy. That means there's a LOT of John Travolta in it.

Dragonette Strap On The Glam

Toronto-London, England electro-pop explorers Dragonette don't care if they mash synths with guitars, horns with giant beats or teasing lyrics with girlie vocals. They also don't care if they offend the British Ministry Of Defence. At a recent Trafalgar Square concert for London Pride 2007, the foursome made up of once sappier singer/songwriter...
