First Aid Kit
There are three bands called First Aid Kit:
1. Swedish indie/folk duo which consists of sisters Johanna (b. 31 October 1990) and Klara Söderberg (b. 8 January 1993) both from Enskede, Sweden.
The sisters began composing songs in 2007, taking their name at random from an English dictionary.
They began uploading their music to their My Space page and sending their songs to Swedish radio station, this led to live performances and offers from Record Companies. Read Full BioThere are three bands called First Aid Kit:

The sisters began composing songs in 2007, taking their name at random from an English dictionary.
They began uploading their music to their My Space page and sending their songs to Swedish radio station, this led to live performances and offers from Record Companies.
Their debut EP "Drunken Trees" was released on the 9th of April 2008 in Sweden on the label Rabid Records, owned by the Swedish electronic duo The Knife.The EP was produced by their father and contained a collection of songs uploaded to their My Space page including You're Not Coming Home Tonight and Tangerine, a song sent to Swedish the previous year.
By 2009 the sisters were well known locally, but it was when they uploaded their version of the Fleet Foxes' song Tiger Mountain Peasant Song which caught the attention of the Fleet Foxes guitarist/vocalist Robin Pecknold and subsequently the popularity of the duo to international fame. The Drunken Trees EP was then re released not long after.
Their debut album The Big Black And The Blue was originally issued on 1 February 2010. The album contained the first single Hard Believer and the standout I Met Up With The King, possibly still one of their greatest songs and sounding very much like Neko Case
Also in 2010, they recorded a cover version of Buff Sainte-Marie's Universal Soldier and performed in honor of Patti Smith at the Polar Music Prize singing her classic Dancing Barefoot
Their 2nd album The Lions Roar, produced by Mike Mogis from Bright Eyes, was released on 18 January 2012. On it's release, it received many favorable reviews. One of the three singles Emmylou was named Rolling Stone's 10th best song of 2012.
The album shot to #1 in the Swedish charts and top 40 in most other charts. On Billboard's rock chart it climbed as high as #17
The album contained three singles, the title track, Blue and the classic Emmylou
The duo's third album came in 2014 with the release of Stay Gold once again produced by Mike Mogis. Once again the album was received favorably. Billboard listed My Silver Lining as one of the best 10 songs of 2014, while The Huffington Post included the album on their list of 2014's best albums. Early the following year the album won "Album Of The Year" at the Swedish Grammy's (Grammis)
On the world charts it charted extremely well, reaching #23 in the US, top 10 in some European countries and Australia. After touring for most of 2014 and 2015, they decided to stop touring and apart from playing a few festivals, they never played any concerts until mid 2017.
The duo issued a song on 10 March 2017 for "International Womans Day", You Are The Problem Here, they called it an angry song inspired by the case of Brock Turner who was giving a 6 month jail sentence after raping a drunk woman. All profits from the song were said to be donated to "Women For Women International"
On 19 January 2018, their fourth album Ruins was issued. The three singles (It's a Shame, Postcard, Fireworks) from Ruins had already been released prior to the albums release. The album had a more rough and rustic edge to it, said AllMusic while The Independent praised the sisters for the instinctive harmonies which remain sweet as ever
Folk singer songwriter Laura Veirs appears on Hem Of Her Dress along with the duo's mother and brother.
An EP featuring tracks from the Ruins sessions was released on 14 September 2018. The EP aptly titled Tender Offerings went to #1 on the UK charts.
They began the Rebel Heart tour to promote the album, which will see them visit many countries and take them deep into 2019.

My Silver Lining
First Aid Kit Lyrics
I don't want to wait anymore I'm tired of looking for answers
Take me some place where there's music and there's laughter
I don't know if I'm scared of dying but I'm scared of living too fast, too slow
Regret, remorse, hold on, oh no I've got to go
There's no starting over, no new beginnings, time races on
And you've just gotta keep on keeping on
Gotta keep on going, looking straight out on the road
Can't worry 'bout what's behind you or what's coming for you further up the road
I try not to hold on to what is gone, I try to do right what is wrong
I try to keep on keeping on
Yeah I just keep on keeping on
I hear a voice calling
Calling out for me
These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free
Be it for reason, be it for love
I won't take the easy road
I've woken up in a hotel room, my worries as big as the moon
Having no idea who or what or where I am
Something good comes with the bad
A song's never just sad
There's hope, there's a silver lining
Show me my silver lining
Show me my silver lining
I hear a voice calling
Calling out for me
These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free
Be it for reason, be it for love
I won't take the easy road
I won't take the easy road
The easy road, the easy road
I won't take the easy road
The easy road, the easy road
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on

I feel like I've known Klara my whole life and I've never even talked to her for a day ..
Klara Soderberg, would you walk with me and hold my hand on a winter's day ??
This song is absolutely magnificent, and I could listen to a 10-hour long version of it.
From the intro, to the melodies, to the chorus.
This has to be one of the most profound pieces of music ever written.
EVER.
Or possibly the MOST PROFOUND ever written.
Unbelievably epic, magnificent and just never before, unprecedented.
Klara Soderberg touches her music and her melodies deep , deep and intrinsically .. with her very soul.
And her sister Johanna compliments Klara's every move in the song and video.
Magnificent.
I wish for you beautiful dreams,
ferris wheels, beauty, loveliness , everything of comfort.
Thank you sooooo much, and whatever you've gone through in life or will go through, always know that you have comfort.
Let this be your silver lining ..
LET IT FILL YOUR SOUL , KLARA

Take me some place where there's music and there's laughter
I don't know if I'm scared of dying but I'm scared of living too fast, too slow
Regret, remorse, hold on, oh no I've got to go
There’s no starting over, no new beginnings, time races on
And you've just gotta keep on keeping on
Gotta keep on going, looking straight out on the road
Can't worry 'bout what's behind you or what's coming for you further up the road
I try not to hold on to what is gone, I try to do right what is wrong
I try to keep on keeping on
Yeah I just keep on keeping on
I hear a voice calling
Calling out for me
These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free
Be it for reason, be it for love
I won't take the easy road
I've woken up in a hotel room, my worries as big as the moon
Having no idea who or what or where I am
Something good comes with the bad
A song's never just sad
There's hope, there's a silver lining
Show me my silver lining
Show me my silver lining
I hear a voice calling
Calling out for me
These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free
Be it for reason, be it for love
I won't take the easy road
I won't take the easy road
The easy road, the easy road
I won't take the easy road
The easy road, the easy road
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on
Show me my silver lining, I try to keep on keeping on

Thank you for this song. My late husband sent it to me about 7 months before he died...the first and last song he ever sent to me, saying it made him think of me. It has brought me great comfort and felt like a message of love every time I listen to this song. Very grateful.

Sorry for your loss

@Paul Wright beautiful. I've found this too since my son passed last year. I never would have thought that anything would be good again but I have found some wonderful things in my grandchildren and in nature.
Moira Hill
God rest his soul. And God bless you. Big hugs sweetheart.

I hope you don't mind... I copied your comment and the link to this video and posted them on my Facebook page. So beautiful. ❤❤❤
