We’re now just two days away from the Brit Awards where First Aid Kit have been nominated for ‘International Band’. Although somewhat commercial in nature, the Brits are by far the best known UK music awards and are recognised internationally. Previous winners in this category include big names like R.E.M, U2, and the Killers. If First Aid Kit are to win, they will have to beat the hugely successful American duo, the Carters ( Beyoncé and Jay-Z). If they do win you can expect a surge in popularity as large numbers of the population will be made aware of First Aid Kit for the first time.
The Brit Awards ceremony takes place on Wednesday, 20th February at the O2 Arena, London.
The event is being broadcast live at 20.00 UK time on ITV and STV UK television channels and can be streamed online at:
