With their U.K. tour now fully sold out, including a night at London’s famed Royal Albert Hall, First Aid Kit have announced they will join the stellar line-up at the iTunes Festival in London (itunes.com/festival) on September 21, performing at the Roundhouse with Ryan Adams. The dates precede the band’s U.S. fall tour, where they’ll headline some of the largest and most renowned venues of their career including New York City’s Hammerstein Ballroom on October 24, The Ryman Auditorium in Nashville on October 29, and The Wiltern in Los Angeles November 12. Oklahoma-based artist Samantha Crain will support on all dates.  See below for all U.S. dates, and visit http://thisisfirstaidkit.com to purchase tickets.

Today, InStyle.com has premiered a beautiful new behind-the-scenes, in-studio video for their song “Master Pretender.” Watch the clip here: http://vevo.ly/UHQwSw. Just days ago, First Aid Kit performed a stellar cover of Jack White’s “Love Interruption” on Australia’s Triple J. Watch that clip here: http://youtu.be/3B_Iyi3u1Pc.

With their most recent album Stay Gold, First Aid Kit—sisters Klara and Johanna Söderberg—have honed their lush arrangements and blossomed as vivid storytellers in creating this ambitious 10-song collection of originals. Rolling Stone raves it’s “worthy of worship,” while Pitchforkdescribes the album as “’70s-tinged folk-rock that thrives on soaring vocals, warm harmonies, big choruses, and heart-on-sleeve lyrics.” PEOPLE proclaims Stay Gold is a “big, rich-sounding album that straddles American folk, country and pop...the vocals are earnest and plain, the melodies catchy—yep, it's gold.” In addition, Billboard has named First Aid Kit’s single “My Silver Lining” one of their “10 Best Songs of 2014 (So Far).”

Stay Gold is available everywhere now: http://smarturl.it/FAK_StayGold.
