ABOUT FIRST AID KIT
Prodigious Swedish teenagers Klara (17) and Johanna Söderberg (19), AKA First Aid Kit, have been gathering fans apace since the release of their 'Drunken Trees' EP in February 2009. They are proud to have since released their glorious debut full length, The Big Black and The Blue.
ABOUT THE EPISODE
First Aid Kit have some wonderful live performances out there on the internet. So we were very excited to see what they'd do for us. Their simple guitar sound and stunning harmonies would bounce off those cobblestones like nothing else.
As we were preparing for the shoot, hoping the rain wouldn't get any heavier, we noticed a horse and cart go by. Hmmmm.... What a great way to pick up the band. Ty chased the cabby and brokered a stellar deal for the one block of transport we needed. We always travel like this of course.
By the time we'd finished sound check we knew it was going to be a special episode. Those voices. Wow. And a little crowd had already gathered behind the cameras, which always adds a welcome pressure and buzz.
Roll cameras. Action. Such beautiful sound and pictures. Wait. No. It's really starting to rain. Damn, that's a great idea Melany. Yeah, give her the umbrella, ask her mum if its ok. I hope this works out.
It did. It really really did.

@SideshowAlleyTV I love the background as people sort of sneak in to watch lol. Nice touch with the horse carriage. Well done all around.

they arrived on horses but the producers only had money for a one way ticket so they had to walk home.

Dear producers ;
Please forgive me for I am downloading your videos on my hard drive and then ripping the audio as mp3 and then putting them on my mp3 player and listening all day long ...I confess to being an addict to this project....Are you really aware of what you are doing to beggars for good music ?

@kahramanbh Haha, thankyou for being so honest. While we can't officially condone what you are doing, we understand and are humbled by your efforts. Hopefully one day we'll release an album or a DVD of our recordings. For the love of good music is our main motivation.

@SideshowAlleyTV
Good music is an understatment! I love First Aid Kit anyway but the recording is amazing! Thank you so much for all the effort you have so obviously put in. This sounds like a studio recording!

@mickram23 Thank you. We aim for studio level production, but try and keep enough of the natural ambience in so that you still get a sense of place.
