First Aid Kit: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

[@nesso.9944]

Please invite them back! Can't believe it's been 12 years since this concert.

[@cristinap.9899]

Yeeees, pleeeease 💓🥹✨🫶

[@SmallBrotha79]

Please invite them back! Need their wonderful music in these crazy times...

[@alexanderf2121]

7:17 .... I almost applauded by myself, alone in my room... That kind of performance is what made Tiny Desk so special....

[@chasegargus8936]

its been so long since you've last had them on. It would be so cool to bring them back, just to see the progress

[@groger201]

They came out with "silver lining" and "fireworks" both really good albums/singles

[@tessmargauxhelen3035]

They needed a break. Artists who tour a lot sometimes need a longer break. They're back in earnest again in the summer of 2021 if corona virus allows it.

[@jude999]

Cannot progress on this first album.

[@Mr1945pete]

So underrated! They are one of my all time favorites in the last 10 years!

[@Mark-if2oi]

Wow, it's now the end of 2022! Didn't realise you 2 have been around so long. I was in Halifax and Manchester this year... You are amazing

[@daviddishman7491]

Love these lasses they are great singers and songwriters and harmonise beautifully. Their Stay Gold album is a masterpiece I love every track. ❤❤

[@JayBigDadyCy]

I truly wish I wouldn't have somehow missed this when it first came out, but man... I haven't had a band impact me the way these two do in a long time. They are absurdly good performers and probably the most talented songwriters I've heard in a very, very long time.

[@beckybertish7841]

I love them. I saw them in concert and they are just amazing. Their songwriting skills give me goosebumps.

[@DRFOP]

They need to make a return to Tiny Desk!

[@debbieburkett4248]

but she falls short and the night explodes in laughter. Love it.

[@brianogrady9883]

Yes!

[@brianogrady9883]

Yes!

[@mshilko]

Bring'em back!

[@ekelsey4]

I love that it took me years to find these gals after browsing these performances from time to time. Gives me a small bit of hope for future discoveries!

[@davidbuck5916]

It's as if they sing with one voice that sings perfect harmony with itself. My god, they're beautiful.

[@vickimaren]

Just beautiful harmony. Love these two.❤

[@nativerain4054]

I just love these Tiny Desk concerts! They really show all these musician's up close. These beautiful sisters are amazing! How in the world did I just find them? Its like finding treasure. Im sooo getting all of their cd's now.

[@tonyharrison2732]

They sing this for Emmylou and move her to tears. I am not sure what the 62 thumbs down people are upset with.

[@jota3979]

Still blown away listening to this

[@stuartrusso6948]

Spine-tinglingly good! You cant help but be enthralled at their singing and song writing. Watching them sing and the smiles and looks they share they are obviously completely in love with singing with each other

[@tonygaskins3254]

Beautiful voices & another amazing tiny desk performance...wow!

[@borjavivanco8600]

When I watch any NPR video, I usually watch another NPR video, but when I watch this NPR video, I have to keep listening First aid kit, their voices right to the emotions, without going through the mind

[@andyholmes6874]

I got chills watching this. They’re so amazing.

[@2ubester2]

They are seasoned accomplished musicians and barely in their mid 20s. I've loved them since the beginning.

[@TheRabidabbey]

Even more amazing than when I started listening a couple years ago. Especially The Lion's Roar and Emmylou and....well, I love it ALL!

[@jankarlsson8341]

So, it takes two women from Sweden to deliver the best Americana these days. Supergifted musicians!

[@lemonpulpmusic]

+Jan Karlsson Check out Kathleen Edwards. She's from Canada.

[@somenoise5624]

Wouldn't say best but yeah they're really good.

[@ryansnot7878]

The Tallest Man on Earth is also Swedish and he's fucking great

[@BreakfastIsImportant]

Ryansot...the answer is Chuck Norris

[@brianz505]

Ghost is from Sweden and they ROCK!

[@wendyj.6922]

Love me some First Aid Kit ....holy moley they're perfect!!!

[@jw6948]

SO glad I just found them for the first time! Amazing voices, thanks!

[@elisabethmagu5147]

i just love these women so much, music for the soul ^_^

[@paulelliott3220]

The two ladies are talented and their voices blend wonderfully 3 great songs from their album, emmylou a beautiful ending Cool cool cool

[@alexbryant93]

I can't believe this doesn't have more views, these girls are spectacular.

[@tobyjohnson2771]

This is what Tiny Desk should be about... totally vulnerable. Not bringing in shitloads of other musicians to back you up or a posse of fans to scream and hype you up, if you can't perform like this.... you're probably missing something

[@flamencoprof]

Two talented performers and I wish them the best.

[@troybankus4468]

Can not wait to see them live in Philadelphia!

[@gwendolyno.3330]

2020 anyone?😍

2022 anyone? 🤮

[@TheZeezee45]

THIS IS MAKING ME SO EXCITED FOR THE NEW ALBUM TO DROP 6/10

[@willvendramini]

if you dont get goosebumps with this...then you dont know how to appreciate some real talent.

[@MasonIFTW]

Their harmonies are so tight. Something great that siblings have together

[@BEEFBRSKT]

Ahhhh never noticed that maybe why Angus and Julia stone have great harmonies too

[@CatBarefield]

i know their voices are great and all, but that you know from listening to their music on your phone every day. BUT THEIR HAIR THOUGH. why is their hair so flawlessssss. T_T

[@jonocollard97]

Swedish water

[@TheVeek192]

Irrelevant

[@darrenchampion4451]

Just got into these young ladies after listening to the TV advert, (thinking it was Laura Marling singing) ! Beautiful harmonies and great songs, like a modern Joni Mitchell x 2. Along with Courtney Marie Andrews, my new favourite females.

[@Dangles1989]

Chords for first song are: (intro) C G F C (singing starts) C G F Em F G C G C G F G C Am (that's what's going to save me) F G C etc etc then from around 2:00 it's C Am D F C Am D F C F Em F Em F G C etc etc Hope that helps :)

[@jakescurio9702]

Many have strolled behind the desk, few have done this type of magic…….

[@stevenmorrow2211]

10y later stil knocking it oot the park (ie) new songs in 2022 are right up thr with anything they done b4 💚

[@adzdahlman9724]

aahhhhh.... that was so lovely. Since I heard 'Wolf '- prob on BBC radio6 music - maybe 5yrs ? ago - I fell under your spell. P.S. more - please*

[@fmjohnson019]

Their hair is so perfect

[@TheSyntheticOmega]

Wow, I haven't listened to these two since I saw their Fleet Fox cover a few years ago. Wow...they have gotten a lot better and if you saw that cover then you know that is hard to say

[@boweewowee]

Emmylou makes me cry every time. Love you ladies

[@allanvanvliet]

Dear NPR, You are the greatest. P.S. Please bring Blind Pilot ASAP kthx

[@dana102083]

@@TheVeek192 who wins?

[@samsterx777]

Loving the raw vocals here. And you can hear the harmonies better here compared to on the albums where the brunette is even more overpowering. 2 great singers!

[@WasabiWaits4No1]

So young, yet so accomplished.

[@MichaelCoburn]

Love you ladies! David letterman thank you for the introduction

[@SuuzieQ]

First Aid Kit also nods to the band Momma's and the papa's. Notice that Klara is always the one starting and announcing the song, she's like the lead singer of the duo.

[@indeestar1111]

y'all make me cry - my favorite girl duo

[@keithbate9405]

Johanna is gorgeous but Klara is cute too. She also has a wonderful soulful voice. Until the new album (Stay Gold) "The lion's roar" was my fav Track by FAK. It is now the brilliant "a long time ago" Klara sings it so beautifully

[@AR-zn1oh]

Please bring first aid kit back!

They have really good harmony. I would love to hear them cover Reba.

[@paola-vj8ex]

I!!!!! I just discovered them during tha pandemic!!!

[@boyinblue.]

May I suggest you check out these bands too “of monsters and men” “the oh hellos” and “the crane wives” you might really like them.

[@wootoodoo]

Emmylou is soooo beautiful!

[@johnniefox1]

I accidentally found First Aid Kit around 100 years ago while looking for a Fleet Foxes song. I've loved them since.

[@BensCoffeeRants]

I looked it up, they first started uploading music to MySpace in 2007 and got noticed more in 2008, the younger one Klara was born in 93, so that would make her about 14 or 15 at the time. Crazy. If this was uploaded in 2012, she'd be 19 though.

[@colmbreen226]

Do you mean their left or ours? Because the one on our left is the older sister.

[@BensCoffeeRants]

Our left, I thought she was the younger one. They both look young though.

[@GumaroRVillamil]

Johanna is the one with the autoharp, and she's the older sister.

[@larsmuller309]

Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful💐

Sweden; ready-to-assemble furniture made from sawdust and now top-notch American country/folk music. Is there anything this country can't produce?

Yes.... unfortunately they cant produce a safe country for the ppl here. A highly corrupt country...but hey, lets enjoy the ladies. 😏

Johanna is so damn gorgeous its difficult.

[@Hepatomancer]

What do you think of Klara? Too butch?

[@noahmcdx1]

Nothing's wrong with her. She's pretty. But Johanna... Hepatomancer

[@94Horcrux]

Noah McDaniel Something about Klara just always draws my complete attention. To me she's the one with immeasurable beauty. At their concerts I often forget Johanna is there, haha.

[@banjobandit3270]

Noah McDaniel She's my dream girl. I was put on their guest list recently at a show in NC and got to be backstage with him. Tried not to be a creepy fan, but she's sooo beautiful I can't quit looking. It's not even in a perverted type way. She's just sweet, and mysterious and magical. And those eyes. Like you simply put it's difficult

[@stevebruce5884]

Mate, Klara is not too butch. She should be even bigger in my opinion, like bigger quads and delts. Maybe bigger lats

[@MYMICHELLE70]

when it's you I find like a ghost in my mind, I am defeated...
