I would love to hear these two cover "Jolene". Their voices would be so cool on that track. I've only seen them live once in person, but they were incredible. Two talented ladies.
Folks, there isn't a more potent, pure, uncut, industrial grade example than this of why it pays to have a robust education system and a broad and effective social safety net. Give it a couple of generations and not only is everyone happier, more productive, and economically solvent, you also have the added benefit of cranking out statuesque, gorgeous people who are wildly talented in a variety of fields. These people are absolutely not fucking around but also seem like the most laid back cats you have ever met. Insane
I wanna say it's something to do with the deliberate Country/Southern brogue they adopt in most of their songs... They're Swedish, and so although being fluent in English, their default accent isn't gonna be that of a mississippi queen ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ So... that intentional inflection in the delivery is sort of a fixed element they aim to emulate and reproduce each time through, no less precise and deliberate for them than, say, hitting the right notes!? This, in place of just singing the lyrics newly each time in their own natural, conversational voices... (Sort of like in karaoke, when you aren't realy just singing the song-but instead singing the song in the specific voice/style of the original singer?!) I could see this producing a much more consistent performance, given their talent to be able to actually do that, and be so damn spot on each time through... That's the first idea that popped into my head, at least, lol.
Found My Silver Lining at the end of Takes From The Borderlands, no many how many times I play that game the song breaks my heart in the most beautiful way! This band will always be special to me for that.😊
What can i say? I liked them so i introduced their music to my partner and she loved it. Then one day we showed this KEXP concert to our 2 years old daughter and guess what ??.... she is now addicted to it and only sleeps after listening these songs. No joke! Every single day for at least the last 8 months. Thanks girls for these beautiful lullabies. 😘
I found First Aid Kit about a month ago and I have bought every album and every song I can find. I listen to their music every day. I am sure at some point I will have to stop and take a break unless they come out with a new album. You ladies have such a rich beautiful sound. I love the vocals and I love the instramentals as well as the lyrics. It's the total package. Listening to your music just makes me want more. I really am glad that you ladies figured out that you had something special and decided to share it with the world.
GREETINGS FROM ARKANSAS BE CARE SOUNDS LIKE YOUR OBSESSIVE AND THESE TWO WOMEN ARE ONLY HUMAN LIKE THE REST OF US THEY SOUND LIKE THEY ARE FROM THE GREAT STATE OF GEORGIA HERE IN THE USA THEY LOOK MODEST AND GOOD NICE LOOKING ...THEY NEED TO BE VERY CAREFUL AND AND NOT SEEK FAME BECAUSE THE DRUGS MARIJUANA DRINKING AND LOOKING PROVOCATIVE WILL BE NEXT... THE INDUSTRY WILL RUIN THESE TWO....THEY LOOK MODEST AND VERY PRETTY KIND OF A REMIND ME OF THE BAND HEART SISTERS ANN AND NANCY WILSON...HOWEVER THESE TWO LOOK MORE CHRISTIAN LIKE AND MODEST VERY PRETTY NOT SECULAR AND VULGAR LOOKING GOD BLESS YALL
The way that the lap guitar player is looking up and giving everybody a smile at 7:40 is just how I felt right in that moment. Great band, great sound.
Wonderful Women...just heard the first song first time....WOW...you bring me into your groove every darn time...thank you so very much. Please continue to gift us with your fine work, I am 81 now and really need your refiueling! Much love, granny Meg
I wonder what it felt like when their producer had his "Ah-Ha" moment after hearing them together. I bet you he got chills .... nobody sounds like them period.
The story I heard from an interview with Klara and Johanna was the first time they sang for their parents as a duet they remembered their parents stunned faces and they looks their parents gave each other ...LOL.... that's probably the first professional recognition, I think their father was famous in a rock band Lolita Pop in Sweden. they have some true music genes in the family that would recognize talent when they saw it.
I am 44 and seriously First Aid Kit is my most respected and favorite artist. I have been watching them from the start. Not as a perv, but as a damn those girls got it and I want to see it unfold.
ash fa: Sounds like you are more 10 with your comment. Who cares what his comment sounds like? He likes the band. Since when is there anything wrong with that? What was he supposed to write? "Yeah, these bitches is dope. They are off the hook." Of course not. Get a life, troll.
I'm 61 and I can appreciate beauty. These two ladies are very beautiful and extremely talented. What would make it pervish for me to appreciate that fact would be if I started going down a different trail in fantasy world. It is cool to look at them and appreciate them. If older women look at young men and say they are handsome or cute or whatever, the same rules apply to them.
This style of music is atypical for me, but from the first time I heard them they captured me and I am held spellbound when I hear them. Beautiful music!
I would like to see KEXP simply list ALL the musicians in their description box. Both the drummer & the guy on pedal steel (?) did an outstanding job on this!
Love these two girls, they are so good. I stumbled upon their music when they first surfaced in the USA. They were really on target during this set. Kudos to the steel guitar player too, he's great.
Once again KEXP introduces me to another great band the brings light into my life. This band is beautiful the lyrics are fulfilling. A new fan of First Aid Kit for sure.
WOW ! When this video first started playing, And the music for " My Silver Lining " started ... I got cold chills, Which is a pretty good indication that the song is gonna touch me is some strange profound way ... I love these ladies ...
Dang!! I heard about these ladies through a friend and I procrastinated to look them for months...Gosh, was I missing out on some beautiful music! That first tune is magical, it almost paints a picture of times in your life where you're struggling to find a way but you just have to keep on keeping on...needless to say that's been one of my favorite sayings from the Joe Dirt film for quite a few years...You just have to keep on, keeping on!! Hope they comeback to Seattle!!
Can never give enough credit to a very good group of musicians backing in a band. The styles of the drummer in the steel pedal blend perfectly with these girls.
Absolutely crazy awesome! Like the Everly brothers back in the day, these ladies drift from harmony to sync to octave vocals.The dynamic of doing that adds a new instrument to the band.
And their accompanying drummer is a tune enhancing percussionist, not “ just a drummer”. He knows when & how to use brushes, and a variety of other drumsticks; very tasteful and supportive. Pedal steel player is wonderful too, filling & flowing where appropriate and never overwhelming a song or the vocals. Everything is to love here. 😊
Found this band after watching Bad Sisters. Listened to them all evening and then found this recording. What can I say? Beautiful performance and epic sound engineering 👏
I love KEXP. Desde que empecé a ver los performance, me enamoré de ésta estación. Siempre buena música y gran variedad. Y aquí he conocido muchos buenos artistas, gracias por hacer eso posible
Only stumbled upon this dynamic duo who are the rich heirs of HARMONY BASED LIFE COMMENTATORS like Simon and Garfunkel, with the deep strength of Mary Travers from PPM, ALL BUNDLED IN SUCH YOUNG BODIES. It was a primary school production of Peter and the Wolf which used FAKs Wolf and I have been catching up ever since on their TEN years!! Their tribute to Leonard Cohen is magical and worth the hunt from 2017... a fantastical tribute. Their covers seem to lift every song and poem into a new dimension but always true to the original.
I was introduced to this band while listening to Tom Petty radio on XM and Brody longtime friend of Tom Petty bugs said how him and Tom used to listen to and I quite like them thank you Tom Petty
Scandinavian women who sound like corn-fed American Midwestern country singers. Amazing.
Before I read your comment and knowing nothing of them, I was going to comment that this reminded me of Kulning!
I would love to hear these two cover "Jolene". Their voices would be so cool on that track. I've only seen them live once in person, but they were incredible. Two talented ladies.
Josh Fryer YES
Josh Fryer PLEASE GIRLS, SING THIS ONE
Yup me too
+Josh Fryer Hey ! I've seen them in live playing Jolene 3 months ago in Paris , and it was awesome ! Lets pray for an official cover soon ! Cya
+1
KEXP top quality sound as always. Big up to your engineers.
I thought so as well. These guys knows their stuff. But most of all a great performance.
Correct, sounds great.
your right, most of bands are better here than anywhere else, for me its even better than the studio versions
No Joke! KEXP kills it!
London Grammar were a great set too
Folks, there isn't a more potent, pure, uncut, industrial grade example than this of why it pays to have a robust education system and a broad and effective social safety net.

These people are absolutely not fucking around but also seem like the most laid back cats you have ever met. Insane
And also not to mention, what an absolutely top level mix.
I love how they always sound exactly like the studio version live.
Pure talent
I wanna say it's something to do with the deliberate Country/Southern brogue they adopt in most of their songs...

Lovely to hear ❤
This child is being raised the best!
I haven't been so impressed by a modern folk artist like this since Tallest Man on Earth. Total package. I may move to Sweden.
+Kevin McGrath You are very welcome. Summer is great here, winter not so much.:)
Lucky for Sweden, both Tallest Man On Earth and First Aid Kit are swedish. :)
Maybe check out Christian Kjellvander...
Sweden seems to be producing some exceptional as of late. From folk to metal.
Klara & Tallest Man hang together. Check out "The Little Red Barn Show" -- you won't be disappointed!
Johanna has the absolute voice of an angel. It complements Klara's excellent lead vocal perfectly. Fantastic band.
I found First Aid Kit about a month ago and I have bought every album and every song I can find. I listen to their music every day. I am sure at some point I will have to stop and take a break unless they come out with a new album. You ladies have such a rich beautiful sound.

I really am glad that you ladies figured out that you had something special and decided to share it with the world.
New album coming out!! They just released a new song called "Its A Shame" - hope you love it as much as I do!
Always Agree!😁😍🙏

@@annaleonardi6299 i think you dont know them very well, no offense
Johanna and Klaras kid brother Isak is also performing now in 2023 😉 we are so proud of our amazing sisters 🇸🇪❤️
Они великолепны.Обнимите их за меня при встрече.Привет из России.❤
The way that the lap guitar player is looking up and giving everybody a smile at 7:40 is just how I felt right in that moment. Great band, great sound.
I only found First Aid Kit about 6 months ago, their music has taken over my life. Beautiful beyond words.
are you guys related ?
smorgastorta get a room.
About 20 minutes ago! LOL! Love them!
They are so young but their music is so deep.
Wonderful Women...just heard the first song first time....WOW...you bring me into your groove every darn time...thank you so very much. Please continue to gift us with your fine work, I am 81 now and really need your refiueling! Much love, granny Meg

'He'? Also why do you think a male producer 'discovered' them? Sounds like they discovered themselves for themselves.
I am 44 and seriously First Aid Kit is my most respected and favorite artist.
I have been watching them from the start. Not as a perv, but as a damn those girls got it and I want to see it unfold.
sounds like you are more 14 with this comment

I couldn't have said it better. Can't get enough of them!
Their voices are just so special and from another time yet they fit perfectly.
Love these girls!
KEXP has really become a powerhouse
Waitress Song is fantastic
I've heard FAK live twice at Ryman auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee, twice. If you have the opportunity to catch their live show, do.
the sound quality of this live performance is beyond good, nice job KEXP.
Too true!
Excellent drumming from herr Lindström! Doing exactly what's needed for the songs.
First Aid Kit are always great. No matter how many times I hear their songs I never get bored. Just fantastic band🐺👍
Just wow! Thanks Graham Norton for introducing me to these amazing artists.
I just discovered this mini concert. Can't believe it took me so much. This band is pure gold.
i was not prepared for this magnificence
Awesome! Love First Aid Kit. One of the best shows we've filmed by far.
Thank You KEXP for introducing Us to these Wonderful Artists !
i only found this station a few years ago now it’s my favorite 👍👍🙏🌞
My home station 😊
their voices match so well
I would like to see KEXP simply list ALL the musicians in their description box. Both the drummer & the guy on pedal steel (?) did an outstanding job on this!
Drums: Niclas Lindström
Pedal steel: Melvin Duffy
No shit Sherlock!
@@jongu71 they both are excellent. Demonstrating various subtle techniques.
Love how pronounced the pedal steel guitar is in this recording, I enjoy it more than the studio recording IMHO.
Still listening. ❤️
OMFG THEY ARE SO FUCKING GOOD
I love First Aid Kit. They are so awesome! Saw them in my home town of Boston and can't wait to see them again next August in Sweden!
Love these two girls, they are so good. I stumbled upon their music when they first surfaced in the USA. They were really on target during this set. Kudos to the steel guitar player too, he's great.
Please keep them coming ladies. You are paving the way of hope for good music to still be made.
In 2024 !
I discovered First Aid Kit last year and this song 'My Silver Lining' is the best song I ever heard!
Love you guys ❤
These girls...are the real deal. ☀️
Once again KEXP introduces me to another great band the brings light into my life. This band is beautiful the lyrics are fulfilling. A new fan of First Aid Kit for sure.
Just saw a video of these two covering Black Sabbath's War Pigs. Unsurprisingly they killed it.
Love it! Best folk band of our time.
WOW ! When this video first started playing, And the music for " My Silver Lining " started ... I got cold chills, Which is a pretty good indication that the song is gonna touch me is some strange profound way ... I love these ladies ...
Great songwriting, incredible voices, the arrangements are evocative. I saw them last year and it was very moving.
I watched their 2012 KEXP performance, and I think they look younger here?? how do they do that
and they're ridiculously talented i'm dying
+Natalia they obviously wear a lot more make up in this video. but I agree, their talent is out of this world.
Thanks First Aid Kit and KEXP for this show. I love it.
Wow 😊they are even better than on record m!!!!
The sign of a true talent, isn’t that so … AURORA is the same kind of talent, always better live 👏🏼
Omg I can't believe I just discovered these girls! They are amazing! 💗💗
Dang!! I heard about these ladies through a friend and I procrastinated to look them for months...Gosh, was I missing out on some beautiful music! That first tune is magical, it almost paints a picture of times in your life where you're struggling to find a way but you just have to keep on keeping on...needless to say that's been one of my favorite sayings from the Joe Dirt film for quite a few years...You just have to keep on, keeping on!! Hope they comeback to Seattle!!
I'm not (normally) a country fan...but this is epic! Those harmonies are quite something!
I'm totaly in love for these two beautiful and talented girls!
i listen to them every day (: their music is just stunning!
Thanks Sweden.
I like how they dress. And sing, and harmonize.
Absolutely wonderful
new to these two and WOW!!!
Soo beautiful, love their songs and voices. Really unique style
This is good stuff
Unmistakably the Swedish musical wonder. Excellent sound engineering!
This band is super tight behind these awesome girls voices!
Can never give enough credit to a very good group of musicians backing in a band. The styles of the drummer in the steel pedal blend perfectly with these girls.
I just listen quickly through 10 bands KEXP , but this caught my attention.
8/24 Just discovered this beautiful, haunting tune ❤ I'll check out more of their nusic!
Johanna e Klara são perfeitas.
awesome group, waitress song amazing
that's it? I want MORE!
Top class. Great band and credit to KEXP for another great recording.
This band is killer. I'm so glad I found them on your stream :)
This is just an amazing performance... the voices... just stunning please keep it up you just got one more fan...
I love how you guys are amazing live and recorded!
Absolutely crazy awesome! Like the Everly brothers back in the day, these ladies drift from harmony to sync to octave vocals.The dynamic of doing that adds a new instrument to the band.
I am in love with that keyboard player....oh my lord.
Such a super class act. These girls are just unbelievably talented.
Wow! Amazing music here, Magical even.
You know when you really love a band but you worry if they can do it live. Not with these guys, they nailed it. 🙌
And their accompanying drummer is a tune enhancing percussionist, not “ just a drummer”. He knows when & how to use brushes, and a variety of other drumsticks; very tasteful and supportive. Pedal steel player is wonderful too, filling & flowing where appropriate and never overwhelming a song or the vocals. Everything is to love here. 😊
My most cherished discovery!
Fascinating. I Just today discovered these sisters' music. They remind me of The Staves, a sister group from the UK, I think.
Awesome!! This is just pure gold, love these girls
Found this band after watching Bad Sisters. Listened to them all evening and then found this recording. What can I say? Beautiful performance and epic sound engineering 👏
What a band they are on the money every time I hear them live
i Love How they Voice mix like only one Voice 🥰🍃✌️
Always vocal perfection with these girls. Amazing live!
These ladies are something else. Blown away everytime.
This is the firts time that I listen their music, and is amazing... Saludos from Mexico
These jams be jivin'.
Love these young ladies.
They're both very pretty. Swedish girls are beautiful, and great sound very unique.
Awesome! I had just been getting back into these girls, what a joy to see a new kexp show from them.
So beautiful, the soundtrack to a particularly poignant time in my life. Can't wait to see them live.
Thanks KEXP and First Aid Kit, from Harry Potter Land.
I love KEXP.
Desde que empecé a ver los performance, me enamoré de ésta estación.
Siempre buena música y gran variedad.
Y aquí he conocido muchos buenos artistas, gracias por hacer eso posible
Thanks for having this band on your show. :) I really like them.
Sounds great!! congrats KEXP, Constantly you are bringing to me an outstanding music, thanks!

Folk from sweden for americans with love and talent.
love, love, ,love this song! I heard it first in The Umbrella Academy and from then, the song lives on my head. The message struck me deeply.
