First introduced by a mutual friend, vocalist Coco O., and multi-instrumentalist/producer Robin Hannibal had immediate chemistry. “As soon as I met her I knew she was special.” Robin says of their first encounter. “She could sing the phonebook and make it sound good.” Dubbing themselves Quadron, as a respectful nod to both of their heritages as being ¼ Black, the two began making waves across various taste-making blogs. It was only a matter of time before the Danish duo was picked up by Los Angeles –based Plug Research Music and introduced to the stateside audience. 

The Motown-inspired "Slippin'" quickly made Coco a darling among music critics. Soon to follow, Quadron found themselves on the soundtrack for the Oscar-Award nominated film The Kids are Alright, as well as multiple TV placements including Grey’s Anatomy.

In 2009, just a few months after Quadron began issuing their music, renowned BBC DJ Gilles Peterson found himself enamored by the sensuous track "Day", and included the song in his highly anticipated year-end special of Worldwide. Also recognizing the tremendous talent of the duo, both New York Magazine, as well as L.A’s well-respected KCRW DJ Anthony Valadez, named their self-titled album as one of the “Top Ten Best” of the year.

Among several others, Prince and Adele have labeled themselves as fans, and Raphael Saadiq invited Quadron to be the opening act for his 2011 tour. (read more)
