First Aid Kit begin the European leg of their Rebel Hearts tour in Paris on 26th November.
They will be supported by Bon Air, for the Paris show only, and by Isaac Gracie for the remaining dates (the Staves are unable to appear, as was originally advertised).
The tour dates are as follows:
Tickets still appear to be available for all dates, but please check with your ticket agent or the venue.
For those of you who like to keep track of these things, here’s a list of songs played by First Aid Kit during their recent UK and Ireland tour. I think I’ve covered everything, but if you know of any others please email me or post the information on the forum! (more…)
Here are some videos of First Aid Kit ‘busking’ in various public locations. They sound pretty amazing with just vocals and an acoustic guitar!
In the first video, they’re performing ‘My Silver Lining’ at London’s Southbank next to the River Thames. People are walking past. Some stop to look, while others seem oblivious of what they’re witnessing! The performance, from 2014, was part of the Latitude in the City festival.
In the next clip, they perform an acoustic version of ‘It’s a Shame’ in what looks like a fairly upmarket shopping mall in Paris. The video was shot for 3eme Gauche. (more…)
First Aid Kit ended their UK/Ireland Rebel Hearts tour in Leeds last night. From what’s been reported, and what I’ve seen myself, it’s been a huge success.
For over ten years these two sisters have been establishing a place for themselves in the worlds of folk, country and ‘indie’ pop music. Within these circles, they’ve built an ever-growing following, but they’ve largely been ignored by the public at large. Although it’s still too early to tell for certain, this tour appears to mark a shift towards something much bigger. (more…)
Here’s an interview with First Aid Kit (accompanied by some great images) by photographer Alexandra Cameron.
