Niki & The Dove - Mother Protect

Niki and the Dove are a Swedish trio fronted by singer-songwriter Malin Dahlström who, according to Popjustice, sound like "the Knife at Eurovision".

Before forming Niki and the Dove, lead vocalist and songwriter Malin Dahlström was programming for Midaircondo, singing lead in now-defunct rock band The Dora Steins, contributing wispy vocals to various electronic productions and doing solo shows and performance art all around Sweden under the name Disdishdance.

Her new band combines epic choruses with Eastern European drum styles to make soaring songs dripping with euphoria. Recent single Mother Protect contains its fair share of incredible moments, specifically what sounds like a panpipe solo around the two-minute mark.
