Early history

Sisters Johanna and Klara Söderberg are from Enskede, in the outskirts of Stockholm. Johanna was born on 31 October 1990 and Klara on 8 January 1993.[6] Their father was a member of the Swedish rock pop band Lolita Pop[7](3:20–4:03) but he quit before Johanna was born and later became a teacher of history and religion.[8] Their mother is a teacher of cinematography.[9]

From childhood, Klara and Johanna were eager singers, giving concerts using a jump rope as a pretend microphone.[7](0:40–2:40) Klara's first favorite songs were Judy Garland's songs from The Wizard of Oz and Billie Holiday's version of "Gloomy Sunday", which she sang without much understanding of the English lyrics.[10] Klara wrote her first song "Femton mil i min Barbiebil" [Fifteen miles in my Barbie car] when she was six. [11]

They both attended the International English school of Enskede.[12] Klara applied for admission to a music school but she was not accepted.[13] [14]

In 2005 when Klara was 12, a friend introduced her to the band Bright Eyes.[10] This led her to country and folk music stars such as Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Carter family, Louvin Brothers, Townes Van Zandt, Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris. The same year she received a guitar of her own as a Christmas present[8] and quickly learned to play it.

Johanna enjoyed a wide range of music from Britney Spears to German Techno.[15][16] However, it wasn't until watching the film O Brother, Where Art Thou? and listening to the film's soundtrack that she was inspired to sing "Down in the River to Pray" with her sister, Klara. Fascinated by the result they started to sing together first at home and then as street singers, for example in the Stockholm metro and in front of liquor stores.[7](16:10–17:55)[17](2:55-4:35) Klara preemptively came up with the name for their band at age 13 by looking through a dictionary. She found the term "first aid kit" and thought it described best what she wanted her music to be.[8]

Klara and Johanna also started to write and compose their own country-folk songs inspired by Devendra Banhart and CocoRosie, among others,[10] without much influence from their parents who were more fond of Patti Smith, Velvet Underground and the Pixies.[8] Their father confessed later in a Swedish radio program that he was astonished and actually a little jealous of the ease his daughters had in producing top-notch music.[18](8:20–8:55) The most important advice their father gave to them was to sing so loud that even somebody behind the wall could hear it.[10]

Career

2007–2009

In April 2007 the sisters started to upload their self-made songs to the social networking site MySpace.[11] They also sent a demo of their song "Tangerine" to the Swedish radio.[19] It immediately went on air and was listed as one of the best songs of the summer 2007,[20] which led to requests for live performances and even some offers from record companies. The first official performance as First Aid Kit was at PUNKTmedis library in Stockholm on 6 October.[12][21] More gigs followed but as Klara was 14 and still at school, they could only play during weekends.

Meanwhile, their younger brother attended the same kindergarten as the daughter of Karin Dreijer, half of Swedish electronic duo The Knife and also known as Fever Ray.[11] Their mother asked Dreijer to check out her daughters' songs on MySpace.[10] After doing so, and seeing them play live, Dreijer said that the duo had to be saved from bad deals with the industry. It was decided to sign them to Rabid Records, a label co-owned by The Knife with conditions that allowed the duo to have full control over their music and album art.[8]

April 2008 saw the release of the debut EP Drunken Trees in Sweden.[22] The EP was produced by their father and was a re-recorded collection of songs from their MySpace site originally called "Cross Oceans". Their first appearance in Swedish TV was also that month.[11]

The duo was already quite well known in Sweden by August 2008, when they uploaded a cover version of "Tiger Mountain Peasant Song" by Fleet Foxes to YouTube. Robin Pecknold, frontman and lead guitarist for Fleet Foxes, noticed the duo's message about the video and praised the song on his band's webpage with multiple exclamation marks, causing a surge of popularity of the video.[8][7](32:40-34:30) It led to First Aid Kit becoming internationally known, and them signing with Wichita Records at the end of 2008.

Due to international touring, Johanna quit high school in the autumn of 2008 and Klara never started it.[23] Their father took a leave from his job as a teacher and accompanied them on tour, also helping with soundchecks. First Aid Kit's first show outside Scandinavia was on 22 November 2008 at the Crossing Border Festival in Netherlands. Fleet Foxes performed the day before, and when Pecknold spotted the duo standing at the edge of the stage they were unexpectedly asked to join to sing "Tiger Mountain Peasant Song".[7](34:30–35:10)[17](6:15–7:35)

Wichita re-released Drunken Trees on 23 February 2009 as an enhanced EP with "Tiger Mountain Peasant Song" added as a bonus track along with some videos.

2010–2011

The duo released their first album, The Big Black and the Blue on 1 February 2010.[24] It was again produced by their father. The release was followed by an extensive tour (around 100 shows) in the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and parts of Europe, including Primavera Sound Festival in Barcelona.[25][26][27][28][29]

Klara and Johanna had managed to meet Conor Oberst after Monsters of Folk's concert on 19 November 2009 in Stockholm and give him a demo of their coming album.[30] Oberst had listened it and decided to see the duo when they were performing at the Austin City Limits Music Festival pre-party in Texas on 7 October 2010. In the pre-party concert he was impressed especially by the duo's acoustic performance of Ghost Town and how it had made the audience listen to the song in complete silence. After meeting the duo Oberst called Mike Mogis and asked him to see the duo's performance in ACL festival on October 9.[10] After doing so Mogis was also impressed and offered to produce the duo's next album.[7](29:20–31:20)[31]

A couple of days later on 11 October 2010, after playing a concert in Nashville, the duo got a telephone call from Jack White, who asked the duo to visit his studio next day.[10] The result was a vinyl single containing cover versions of Buffy Sainte-Marie's "Universal Soldier" and Mel London's and Tampa Red's "It Hurts Me Too". The single was released on White's Third Man Records label.[7](35:30–36:55)[32]

First Aid Kit performed first time at the Polar Music Prize gala on 30 August 2011 in Stockholm where they performed the song "Dancing Barefoot" for the winner Patti Smith. She was moved to tears at the intense ending of the song.[7](4:03–6:40) The official YouTube video of the TV broadcast has been watched over million times.
