From last.fm:

Stockholm, Sweden It’s new, it’s Elliphant, according to NME she's got the same management as Niki & the Dove, she's from Sweden and… that’s about all you’re going to scrape as far as information goes. A teaser clip for In The Jungle featured a child preparing to fight a tiger (topped off with the riff from Eye of the Tiger at the end), but that’s all window dressing for the true talking point here – the track itself.
