Description

Swedish duoFirst Aid Kit’snew album Ruins follows the band’s Columbia Records debutStay Gold, a lush and ambitious 10-song collection that beautifully captured their vivid storytelling, landing the group on countless “Best of 2014” accolades. Produced byTucker Martine(My Morning Jacket, Laura Veirs), the album was recorded in Portland, OR where Klara (vocals/guitar) and Johanna Sderberg collaborated with top rate musicians like REM’sPeter Buck, Wilco’sGlenn Kotcheand Midlake’sMcKenzie Smith.Rolling Stonecalls lead single “It’s A Shame,” a “Dylan-meets-Emmylou Harris shot of country-rock sunshine” while the duo note that follow-up, “‘Postcard’ is one of the most traditional sounding songs we’ve ever written, and we wanted the production to mirror that. It’s not a resentful song, but more of a reaching out to a lover to wish them well on their journey in the midst of having to let them go.”
