OK, OK, so I’ve not been very quick of the mark with First Aid Kit, but I’m with it now.  Having bought their album on Record Store Day, and having listened to it almost every day since, I figured it was about time I snuck something in to my show.  I could have played either I Met Up With The King, or Hard Believer, both equally brilliant.  However, as Emma and Maria played the latter in Buffet on Saturday, my choice was made for me.   Have a lookie here if you’ve not heard it yet…
