Back in 2008, Swedish teens—and sisters—Johanna and Klara Söderberg posted a video of themselves in the forest, dedicating a cover of “Tiger Mountain Peasant Song” to the band that originally wrote and recorded it: Fleet Foxes.
Unsurprisingly, their soaring voices and pitch-perfect harmonies caught the online attention of millions, including Fleet Foxes, who soon after asked the sisters to perform the song again—only this time it was on stage with the band.
Fast-forward to today, when First Aid Kit is weeks away from releasing their third record, Stay Gold. This week, they debuted a lush video for the gorgeous, strings-heavy single “My Silver Lining.” The ’60s-inspired clip, directed by Elliot Sanders, mixes equal parts dreamy road trip and witchy creepiness; note the driver-less vintage Mercedes and lightning bolts emitting from the ladies’ fingers. And we’re really digging that owl’s spellbinding gaze at 1:53. Somebody’s channeling a little Hedwig.
Stay Gold drops on June 10th, and First Aid Kit kicks off its North American tour in Portland, Oregon, on May 22.
