First Aid Kit

First Aid Kit

Two sisters from Sweden are lost in a forest that is Planet Earth; little pixies who can’t find their way home so sing songs about housewives, animals, baking and love. They sway about on stage with their cherub-like instruments, 70’s middle-partings and perfect harmonies. After only one gig I am already under the spell of First Aid Kit.
I thought everyone would fall in love with them but, evidently not:
After including them on a party playlist on iTunes, a friend of mine asked to turn the song over - like her music is much better than mine??!
It proves that this band of harmonies as lush as warm butter on toasted bread are not everyone's cup of tea. And for once this makes me happy; I'd prefer a handful of people completely appreciating the Scandinavian pair than an army of clueless twits 'lavvvving' them, any day :)
