[@chrisbodum3621]

After the recent loss of my truly wonderful mother, I have been drifting along aimlessly for three months. But then, I came upon First Aid Kit thanks to a car ad.I have cried and cried again listening to all of First Aid Kit. And then I cried some more. I am not crying tears of sorrow for my mother though this may be a part of my grieving process. I am crying tears of joy because of the sheer beauty of it all, the beauty of virtually every song and every performance. Yesterday, after two weeks of addiction, I came across this particular video. Not sure why I never came across it previously but I stayed up through the night watching it over and over. I am still crying and still aimless but even more exhilarated. Thank you Klara and Johanna. Thank you First Aid Kit and thank you WGBH Music. And yes, thanks to the audience ! I'm not asking much of you, just sing, little darling, sing with me. Goodnight Mum.

[@WGBHMusic]

+Chris Bodum Wow, thanks for the amazing comment, Chris. Glad you found this video and hopefully it brings you some peace and joy. Take care

[@sitzpinkler1420]

Chris Bodum literally how it happened to me, dead mother and car advertisements. This is a strange coincidence :) Hope you are somewhat recovered.

[@chrisbodum3621]

Thank you Solange Wichems, time is indeed a great healer and First Aid Kit are a great crutch to lean on. I hope you also find 'recovery'. And thanks again to FIrst Aid Kit.

[@zengreenhouse8497]

there is alot of crap all over the internet, sometimes it gets overwhelming. Then you read something like this and somehow it's all worth it.

[@mikevallee3916]

I'm an old fart, and I just saw them on Letterman , And I'm Hooked. I used to sing 60 years ago in high school. I just adore the harmony. just amazed.

[@dracopticon7788]

Respect to you for liking the music and writing this here. People of all ages should really talk more with each other. They would see that it's really not much difference in their liking sometimes.

[@Zorg2006]

It's been a long time since any music had the effect on me theirs has. It's heart-rending beauty in musical form. Absolutely breathtaking.

[@WGBHMusic]

Zorg2006 Well said. They're pretty amazing. We're so glad we were able to capture this concert just about a year ago.

[@mbroders]

I don't know what happened. Last song, "Emmylou", audience invited to do the chorus. Oldest trick in the book. I've been to hundreds of concerts, I can see through cheap tricks. But I just started sobbing uncontrollably - it was _so_ beautiful. Thanks girls - thought I had lost it - needed that!

[@bethanywalsh3076]

i cant believe this is live, their voices are so good!

[@joannie1q2w3e]

Kudos to WGBH, et al, for sharing this. The musical siblings deserve a much wider audience for their enchanting harmonies and lyrics. Their songs invoke the best musical memories of the 60's & 70's; Joni Mitchell, Simon & Garfunkel, Crosby & Nash, etc. Klara & Johanna just keep get better & better.

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks, Joannie! Well said.

[@maryoneil9901]

I feel like I have discovered gold, their sound is amazing, I am hooked!

[@WGBHMusic]

+Mary O'Neil Haha, we felt the same way first time we heard them. Thanks for leaving a comment.

[@littlebevil]

There is no one word to describe how freakin' good this is/was,, simply amazing and superb. I'm a heavy metal guy, yet i watch this video almost everyday, it's like a drug. Fantastic! Oh and thanks for posting this show, what a treasure.

[@WGBHMusic]

Wow, thanks for the amazing compliment! As a heavy metal guy I'm sure you can appreciate the head banging (and great music)!

[@littlebevil]

WGBH Music Lol yes, the headbanging was a delightful surprise for me, but in the end it's all about the music and the amazing combo of these two angels voices. I have not been this excited about a duo since Simon & Garfunkel. Their cover of America when Paul Simon got the Polar Music Prize was another "fall of my chair" moment for me. But again this concert is just crazy good, it deserves more views and the band a bigger audience. Im forever grateful that you guys recorded this and released it for all of us to enjoy. Thank you again.

[@davidelmquist8670]

Check them doin Warpigs w Sabbath

[@littlebevil]

I've seen that, blown away yet again. Amazing!

[@mickram23]

These girls were always going to make it big someday, the surprise is why it's taken so long. I've been lucky enough to see them live twice in fairly small and intimate venues in Manchester, they really are something very special.

[@WGBHMusic]

Nice. Great that you got a chance to see them live in a small venue like that - twice!

[@KingOfTomfoolery]

Was lucky to see them in Belfast on Wednesday. A real joy to witness live!

[@anthonysalvati5868]

oh man, what a find, I haven't been this excited about any music in so long. The song Cedar Lane is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I have heard in ages. Thank you for the post.

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks, Anthony. Glad you found us. This is one of our favorites for sure. Incredible music & performance.

[@fredericopinto2943]

Cedar Lane is my favorite FAK song.

[@arob802]

We were very lucky to see FAK live last year in Manchester . This Boston concert brings back great memories of the fantastic experience seeing FAK live. Well done to WGBH for producing a brilliant recording

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks for the comment & thanks for watching!

[@scottstrand1874]

As always WGBH comes through with the very best entertainment. This is the perfect example of why we need PBS.

[@TerryTerryTerry]

There is only Forward there's no other way.....Faultless performance.......I like that their dad does the sound and that they are so beautifully expressive and articulate. Both have very strong voices and great audience communication. Some brilliant male voices at the end there too. Pure brilliance from all involved.

[@tommclean5410]

Thanks for posting this show. I've seen them twice in L.A. On a beautiful Fall evening at the Santa Monica Pier in 2013 and just the other night at The Wiltern Theater. How do early twenty somethings write such beautiful songs and harmonize like that? It's beyond me. We are lucky to have them making music. Man, those harmonies along with the pedal steel make me weep...in good way

[@WGBHMusic]

Tom McLean Agree! These girls are so talented! One of our favorite shows by far.

[@gabriela9788]

was there with you at the wiltern. first time seeing them, won't be the last.

[@besttedschmidt]

I saw them in MojoClub Hamburg. Best musik in time, i´m waiting for next tour through Germany. Love this Girls musik.

[@TEKRific]

What a beautifully captured concert. Loved the interview interludes not only with the lovely Klara and Johanna but also the fans! I can't seem to get enough of FAK:s incredible music. Thank you WGBH Music for sharing this moment on YT for all of us who couldn't make it!

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks for the compliment! This show is definitely one of our favorites. So glad to hear you enjoyed the presentation!

[@wytzenauta4167]

Just so innocent and friendly this music

[@coachd1053]

Thanks so much for posting this show! It’s awesome. I must admit I had not heard of First Aid Kit until this morning on my way into work when “My Silver Lining” came on and, thank goodness, the radio identified the group. Been listening to this show streaming all day as well as some of their other songs on KZbin. Love them! Thanks again for the show

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks for that great comment. So glad you found this video and discovered this great band. See them live when you get a chance.

[@PhilProfEdwards]

I wish Johanna sang more, she is not as prolific as Klara but she has a unique voice.

[@dlc1119]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHvOk4aer5iWb7M

[@jude999]

Her voice is only half of Klara's.

[@jethro47126]

You ladies are amazing together. I love your music. It definetely speaks to me on so many levels. I love your lyrics. I love your sound. I love your harmonies. So glad your Dad was a musician and he passed it on to you all. Hope to see you live some day. Looking forward to more amazing music from you in the future.

[@jamesjuliano5853]

ok, with this and the other youtube clips they have out, it won't be long before they are selling out much larger places, if that's what they want. Amazing songwriting and harmony backed by solid pro musicians. The lucky few at this show will look back fondly before long...thanks for sharing and thanks to them for allowing all this to be on the tube. Get the lp's from this group so the music is heard as it should be!

[@joanburns3616]

James Juliano (

[@sarahhojsak7982]

I saw them June 9 in Philadelphia, this is like reliving the experience, thank you so so much!

[@TerryTerryTerry]

Captivated audience at a wonderful performance - thanks for posting this. Wonderful voice control and timing. Beautiful song writing.

[@dnmurphy48]

This was wonderful, thoroughly enjoyed it, love this band and thanks for sharing it openly in youtube

[@hastrom]

This made my day, just simply wonderful! Words escape me, mind really blown...

[@WGBHMusic]

[@WGBHMusic]

[@Davio2]

[@maralyons]

So excited to find this! I wasn't able to get tickets to their sold out show this summer.

[@WGBHMusic]

We're glad you found us! Hope this video gave you a good sense of what their live show is like.

[@georgeglen]

Thank you so much for this wonderful concert and video. First Aid Kit make me very happy!

[@WGBHMusic]

You're welcome, George! Glad you enjoyed it.

[@Jompani42]

Wonterful! Just...wonderful! Can't wait to see them in February on their Swedish tour :)

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks, Jompani. Glad you liked the video & performance. Thanks for leaving a comment. Enjoy their show in February!

[@alejandradiaz4812]

So so so beautiful. No words.

[@WGBHMusic]

Glad you enjoyed the performance, Alejandra. Thanks for leaving such a nice comment!

[@robertjansson6825]

What a GREAT performance, inccludes their best version of "Wolf" starts at 24,30 min, and the end of that song give me goosebumps that never ends!!

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks for the great comment, Robert! Glad you enjoyed the performance & video.

[@WGBHMusic]

I love the drum part in Wolf. What a great song

[@robertjansson6825]

WGBH Music Drums are great to!!

[@jamiecroft23]

This is amazing ! Great filming great interview and great band! Going to see them tomorrow at Manchester Albert Hall can't wait!

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks, Jamie! Appreciate the comment. Enjoy the show at Manchester Albert Hall!

[@keithbate9405]

A female "Simon and Garfunkel " for the modern era. Wonderful !

[@thevaleyard1802]

Keith Bate Actuallg they are more like The Everly Brothers. But they are The Sodeborg Sisters.

[@christianbrady7102]

mix Scandinavian , Scottish, Irish, and English folk music, from the pioneers and settlers you have good old U.S Country and Western music..

[@charlesstratton6270]

One of the many sounds my audio receptors enjoy is the beautiful music these girls and guys put out. Great performance.

[@marcellomazzani3937]

Wonderful! I've been looking at different First Aid Kit videos for several weeks and this is really a nice recording! They plays great here! They should release a live DVD album collecting their best performances

[@jonasdahlin8670]

The Ruisrock video is also great, 55 minutes Quality TV ( Recorder by YLE national TV in Finland )

[@marcellomazzani3937]

Thanks Jonas, I have noticed it already. That's even better. Let's look forward for the live shows announced for 2017

[@johnmcmillan9415]

Never,never take this down!

[@adetya88]

Just came to relive the post you had with Anne Akiko Myers performing Air on G ... found your post of this lyrically gifted duo- happily surprised... Much appreciated ...

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks, adetya! Glad you discovered our First Aid Kit recording! These girls ARE gifted! They've already accomplished so much at a young age. Sure more big things in their future.

[@TheBully2002]

Beautiful, had the pleasure of seeing them live at the Isle of wight festival and hooked

[@shamcra]

What a treat! Thank you so much for making and posting this video.

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks for watching and leaving a comment, Shamcra! Glad you liked it.

[@matstorbjorncedervall2318]

Love this , can´t se enought of it , watch it twice a week at least!!

[@jaroslavsomorovsky2895]

38:05! Seriously, as far as it might be from my thought to get through to you by the hundreds of kilometers that probably separate me from you Joanna I can still imagine how much I would be electrified by your presence. Shit, I sound so sentimental to myself I even doubt posting this. You girls are incredibly perfect, big fan of yours from Slovakia!

[@davehanson1958]

loving this, only just come across this talented band and I think i'm a fan already super stuff, shame they're in the uk right now i'd have gone if I knew earlier, shall look out for them again

[@WGBHMusic]

Glad you found this performance, Dave. Definitely recommend going to see them live if you get the chance. Such great music and a great vibe.

[@davehanson1958]

Thanks very much I sure will go see them hope they come to the uk again very soon these girls can sing have ordered stay gold cd and the lions roar as I love the track Emmylou

[@X777MAR]

This is a pure treat! Thanks for sharing. They were playing in Glasgow on Tuesday night, I couldn't go. This has made up for it (slightly). Cheers :)

[@WGBHMusic]

Sorry you missed the Glasgow show, but happy to hear you enjoyed this video! Thanks for saying so

[@robertkovatch6991]

I've heard Emmylou about 100 times or more and it crushes me everytime. I only stop listening to Dylan to play these girls, a truly talented pair.

[@uglybetty231]

I'm so glad this was posted! This was so amazing I love these girls so much, SUCH a good show!

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it, we did too.

[@Chestnuttonno]

Great and clever keyboard playing and high passions Johanna! Well done, ladies, a fab set.

[@gkarjala]

I absolutely love these girls, their music is like a breath of fresh air. Not been this impressed with originality and style since Van Halen in the late 70's. Yet there is a retro feel to their music. Top shelf, best in the world right now I think. That Tuareg dude from Africa pretty dang-on good too!!!

[@nordha72]

So talanted just an amazing performance one of the best live Ive seen

[@georgehamlett4314]

Heard silver lining on the radio and the next thing know I own all of their albums!

[@mrsvle]

phenomenal, Thank you!! hope to see you live some time. Tucson, Arizona.

[@paultommykaasa7797]

Beste fra sverige ever!!! Kan måle seg med sine idoler! Hilsen fra norge!

[@dlc1119]

Saw this the other night, awesome.

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks! Appreciate that

[@Bm1nor]

what a great show. thanks for sharing :-)

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks, Ben. Glad you enjoyed the vid

[@MrTaitors]

Saw them in Birmingham last week. They are just getting better and better, and this is awesome!!

[@SamVerhoeve]

thx for posting this great video. Great reminder of their 2014 tour (which I saw yesterday in Brussels). Love their music and harmony singing a lot. Would love to be their Gram or Johnny, but I can't sing myself... ps seems like their stage setting & light show has improved since this video was made

[@WGBHMusic]

Glad you enjoyed the video, Sam!

[@chrisd9673]

Too cool. Young Swedish girls doing the American folk hippie chick thing better than anything I've ever heard. And I mean this all as a compliment!! Check out their Black Sabbath and Paul Simon covers!! And why do they speak better English than 1/2 the people born in the U.S.???? WTF?

[@PowerslideSWE]

English is mandatory form 3:rd grade, and everything English on TV is subtitled.

[@debbiejohnson5496]

Love these girls!! They sound and harmonize like my cousin Nita and I.

[@RannCora]

Omg! I love this!! Pure talent!!!!

[@betoski]

this is pure gold!! Thank you for uploading

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks for watching & thanks for the compliment!

[@sandudodon9784]

One of my favorites

[@ericlindemsaltes8217]

really great video and interviews. love these ladies.

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks, Eric. Thanks for the compliment! We're big First Aid Kit fans, too.

[@magnusfu]

Best shit in a while.. and yea.. they surely are a first aid kit for my soul.. amazing talent.. and just what many ppl need right now.. Love em to death

Wow what a performance ❤️❤️❤️

[@emlyngriffith5846]

These girls are quality!

[@welcometothejungleeu]

[@TheGecko213]

Great stage presence and awesome voices. These girls are going the conquer the World like ABBA.

[@cristocontreras445]

lov u girls you are awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@hcdhcdhcd41]

The whole performance is perfect, but 49:00 ... man, Johanna just blew me away there!

[@jMBou-de5hw]

JOhanna is an excellent bassist. On left hand keyboard. It's a good support for voices and others instruments.

[@nathaliebourinet]

genial magnifique bravo j adore

[@user-324-v3e]

Incredible.

[@payne0410]

Johanna is playing bass on the keyboard - awesome

[@WGBHMusic]

Absolutely. She does an amazing job

[@jinkertsun]

I like her guitar playing. She did a good job though.

[@k-poplover6537]

Sublime géniale ottimi ❤

[@dlc1119]

I'd like to see a dvd and/or a cd of this performance available. Put me down for one of each! ;-)

[@UnintelligibleCourtneyM]

It's crazy that you can't even tell they are Swedish. Maybe it's just me but I heard no accent at all. Their music is beautiful.

[@cartergrayshelter7358]

Scandinavian countries are taught English from a very early age and many, especially younger, don't have much of accent if they have one at all

[@UnintelligibleCourtneyM]

***** Take a seat and take it as a compliment.

[@ostbagen]

Brian Chylinski Lots of Scandinavians ended up in that part.

[@danielkarlsson258]

***** That is a myth. We think we are so much better than we are.

[@peer7727]

+Daniel Karlsson Det beror på hur bra man var i skolan. Men du kanske inte var så mycket i skolan ??

[@charlenelaverack2067]

Just perfect

[@turbonbc]

People on their phones miss out on 90% of the real experience. Memory is so much more powerful and life changing than a video clip.

[@jinkertsun]

Turtlefoot69 especially when someone posts the full concert anyway. I truly don’t get why people watch something this good through a 5” screen.

[@johanblom3591]

Well I can just say they are great I really like their sound. Also as they are swedish they like to headbang..as most swedes listen to lots of hardrock metall and folkrock ;)

[@MacHalaG]

people here say that they wouldn't have guessed these girls are from Sweden - but if I just look at the way they are dressed (especially the keyboard player) it's almost like ABBA revival

[@joewilson9962]

I am now convinced. They'll be at the Ogden in Denver 11/18/14, and I will be, too.

[@WGBHMusic]

Glad we could play a small part in convincing you to go see them live! You won't be disappointed!

[@joewilson9962]

WGBH Music Nice to hear from you. I think this all speaks to an interesting dynamic in the new world of music distribution and promotion. Free, unfettered access to music will usually prompt me to spend more money on mpegs and attend more shows (for those acts with which I am impressed, like FAK) than I would otherwise have done. It is possible, of course, to find their music online, and I could sit here, punching buttons and watching the pixels, but thanks to you and others like you, I will now get up off my duff and go see them live. And give them money! Thank you, from both sides of the equation.

[@WGBHMusic]

Joe Wilson "Get up off my duff" Ha! Haven't heard that one before. Thanks for your great comments!

[@yeahwhogivesafuck]

Joe Wilson So did you end up going to the concert in Denver and was it to your liking?

[@joewilson9962]

Sold out by the time I got to the box office. I'll know better next time.

Great band :) Melvin Duffy does a mean pedal steel

[@Garden-Chair]

Anders Eggegård Agreed, he is great.

[@TheGRider56]

Awesome!!!

[@kevinryd]

Niclas Lindström is a great effin' drummer.

[@WGBHMusic]

Agree! He's as solid as they come.

[@edwebber1573]

First aid kit rocks!

[@emmacharles6148]

une découverte une vraie

[@dfhdasfj]

Thanks for that great video! Saw them last night in Hamburg (Ger) and it's great to relive those moments. But one question: Have u filmed every song? I wish i could see 'Ghost Town [unplugged]' from this gig (i didn't know, but i'm sure that they're played that :-) ) But anyway - thank you so much!

[@WGBHMusic]

Thanks for your comment. Glad you enjoyed the video! To answer your question -- we did film the unplugged version of Ghost Town, but without the use of microphones we didn't get good enough audio quality to post.

[@finchyfrost9167]

My queens of the new age. Rock_the_age sweet angels

[@johnpearce4394]

SUPERB!

[@mqueiroz8536]

Amazing Harmonies and Songs... Also like how Johanna does the bass line so effectively in place of a bass guitar looks easy but it is not..

[@belesky]

WOW

[@sjmuffler1]

You know its true when the sum is greater than all the parts.
