Such. Effortless. Talent and Artistry...when I get depressed about the state of the world I just come back and listen to these joyous sister sing... till I get my hope back....please, oh please, keep singing hope into this old world ladies!!!
Whenever I decide to have a search around RUclips my fingers take on a will of their own and invariably type 'First Aid Kit'!
Curse you 'First Aid Kit' for never letting me enjoy the, undoubted, many other pleasures RUclips has to offer!!
their cover of America is the best I've ever heard... they were born to play that song.
I hope heaven sounds something like this
cait you will hear this band there. Also Dead can dance, London grammar and the magnificent Agnes Obel (listen to the "Curse")
Oh, I was pretty sure London Grammar would make their way there.
Cait Tompkins "the curse" Agnes Obel @ Berlin live sessions 2013
+Cait Tompkins If it's real it will!!
I was searching youtube for Fleet Foxes covers and found these two girls from 5 yrs ago singing Peasant Song. So glad I found this.
Shouts if you're still listening to this in 2014!! Seriouslyy can't wait for their new album to drop 6/10!
2018!
2019
2020 represent.
Hey 2014, covid says hi.
I'm listening 2021. 😁💖
Musicianship at its best.
Love these genuine girls.
I love this so very much and I watch it multiple times a day so I thought this might be helpful:
Marianne's Son - 0:10
To a Poet - 3:48
America - 14:48
King of the World - 18:44
It doesn't get any better than these sisters. The best voices, the best harmonies, the most original lyrics, the best creators of moods.
THERES NOTHING MORE TO IT, I JUST GET THROUGH IT - LOVES THAT LINE
I just watched this entire video and was completely amazed. I remember years ago listening to their Fleet Foxes cover... They have grown so much as singer/songwriters - it's awesome!
Were fantastic two years ago; AND now also great. Congrat on your discovery KEXP; thanks.
How can they sing this good? Their vocal harmonies are perfect-
My three favorite duos (in no particular order):
1. The Civil Wars (so sad they split)
2. Chris and Thomas
3. First Aid Kit
This band is so, so good.
obiwannotanikan if you haven't heard them, you must check out the staves. there harmonies are even better then FAK. only reason i like FAK more is because of klara's insanely good falsetto. the staves are a sister trio btw.
Wow, they're great. I just checked out some of their video. Thanks! Yeah, the main reason I listen to FAK is Klara's voice, and I like folk music, but their newer stuff is a bit too poppy for me. My brother loves the Wailin' Jennys. They're very good, but I'm not a huge fan of A cappella.
To a poet is the most beautiful thing ever.. the sudden stop and the lush arrangement afterwards is amazing
Masters of their craft. Damn these girls are talented!!!
Loving 'King of the World'...even better than the album version... a great live rocking rendition...
"But there's nothing more to it, I just get through it." These gorgeous girls make my heart sing xx
Love them, they are unique.
I love that bright eyes is their inspiration for picking up music.
they harmonize so fucking well
Perfect thing to come home to is a new FAK show on youtube. Thank you KEXP.
The way they performed that last song has me replaying over & over lol. I love them.
That cover of America has made me an instant fan!
I just want to sit there and listen to them over and over again! You two are really belong together :) The sisters Söderberg's voices are so harmonized.
Omg! This is too much perfection!
Thanks to KEXP I found this amazing band 'To a Poet' is just amazing, cant wait to see them live ;-)
that cover of america made me cry
It's amazing - rivals the original!
I'm crying for America today.
Loved their original songs, America never been a fan of the song. King of the a world is even better than the LP version! Thanks again KXEP!
lovely and beautiful
YOU SOUND SO BEAUTIFUL TOGETHER AND YOUR MUSIC IS GREAT.
Wow...loving this...excellent quality recording.... does the sisters fantastic voices justice....To the Poet...what an outstanding song that is....rocking along with it!!!!!!
Their harmonies are unbelievable. As a 10 year old many a year ago my friend had an older brother who introduced me to Simon and Garfunkel and Crosby, Stills and Nash, I had a good start in my musical life. So I waited, enjoyed the Eagles, and Kate and Anna McGarrigal, and finally First Aid Kit. I waited and waited for such harmony to come along again. Love this so much.
Beautiful session. I think this presenter did a good job despite some adverse personal comments. Good show. Love it all. Like the drumming - he is spot on - has a vioice too where is he now?- how could they think to lose him?
"adverse personal comments"?
They are brilliant live
King of the world - awesome, with synchronised clapping : )
America -perfect
I'm baffled by the wonderful duo. Congratulations to them!
I simply fell in love with them right on the spot. So much beauty.
Great observation Zach. That woodsy live recording haunted the shit out of me on the most melodic way. They did FF's and amazing tribute as well as present themselves as a force not be reckoned with.
at 7:13 you can see the beauty unfold into a Zepplin moment. These ladies are truly talented. Great Band!
What an incredible band. Seen them at Bestival, favourite act of the weekend.
So beautiful i’m crying
Thank you again KEXP!!! Another wonderful performance from great young talent.
These girls have a great sound and great voice!
Ahhh, their sound is enthralling! Love it :)
So good! So excited for their new album out on 6/10.
Definitely checking these two ladies out at HSBL tomorrow, stoked!!!!!
I can't wait for a new album. I love this girls..

I'm not a patriot but this version of America makes me turns me into a complete puddle ♡♡

This is darn good filming for a radio show.
love YOU girls!!
amazing, I luv them, such a beautiful and talented women... :´)
awesome...
These girls are amazing. Not much more to say :)
Wow wow wow wow wow
My heart melted
There is definitely a female music/muscian renaissance occurring, and no, I'm not talking about Taylor Swift, etc.(PLEEEASE SPARE ME!)
It's awesome because the music scene has been in a lull for the past 5years, so it's great to see it being lifted back up.
I recently learned that women make up 50% of new guitar buyers. The reason? Taylor Swift.
I just can't seem ti get enough of their America cover (personally i think it's miles better than the original)
your the MAN!
Their voices are so American sounding!
Raise the Vibe
Las Amo
Yeah, theyve have def received a lot of credits, Great reviews and 6 grammis nominations etc. They havent played much live in sweden though, actually I think the tour in February 2013 will be their first ever proper swedish tour, which is kind of sad in a way.
Naw, man, these girls have received a lot of credit for their music in Sweden!
MUY BUENO
who knew kermit had a radio programme?
Such wonderful music. I saw them in the courtyard of somerset house this summer. Just so good.
All true and even most British singers try to sound American too. The accent just seems to fit many musical styles better. For example I'm from Lancashire (England) and if anyone sings with a Lancashire accent they are pretty certain to be Folk singers.
They are speaking english and singing. Most people switch up their accents when singing to fit the music style and when learning english people use either British or American Sources, be them formal learning or films and TV. In Scandinavia, American and British TV/Film is popular, people watch it in original audio so are exposed to these accents and English language from an early age.
First Aid Kit was first MoA who did Kpop covers and got famous and stoped doin kpop covers..
OMG!!!
Boootiful!
Great performance as allways. What has happened to the drummer? They have a new one.
Jak Simon & Garfunkel. Dla mnie bomba
FREE.
Love their music...
7:13 ups!!!
