First Aid Kit - Emmylou

Stockholm's finest sibling duo First Aid Kit have released the sweetest song we have heard in a long time. Emmylou is the new single from their just released, highly acclaimed album The Lion's Roar, produced by Mike Mogis of Bright Eyes. We love the tone of the song, it's sunshine in an mp3 format. We have a feeling all the icons name checked would be so proud. Gram Parsons, June Carter Cash, Johnny Cash... Hopefully Emmylou Harris will hear this like asap and Dolly Parton too! We absolutely adore this country feel! The video is shot at legendary Joshua Tree national park - where Gram Parsons spent his last day here and died from an overdose in 1973. Emmylou feels like an instant classic and we can't stop playing it. If you live in the US you can download it for free on iTunes here as it's their pick of the week. 

I’ll be your Emmylou and I’ll be your June 
if you’ll be my Gram and my Johnny too 
No, I’m not asking much of you 
just sing little darling sing with me.
