First Aid Kit, The Lion's Roar


I really like the 70s style and soft attitude of the two Swedish girls in First Aid Kit. They are genuine, down to earth and sings beautifully like two little birds in the morning.  I like the atmosphere of this cover... I like the Art Nouveau typography and the effect in the photography. I like that they often is pictured or filmed outside. In the fields or in a park. This "hippie feeling" really appeals to me! I was so lucky to hear them live in Oslo at BlĂ„ early this year. It was almost magical.. For one particular song, they sang acoustic and so quiet the audience,and myself, were almost holding our breaths, afraid we were going to ruin that very moment. I was stunned!

Maria Mena...



I like the vulnerable expression in these two pictures, the humbleness appeals to me. Its a kind of sadness that becomes beautiful... I like the type writing, the font and the composition.
