Nice to know you can hear in their music a bit of the other bands I'd mentioned. I can't get over how much Allison's voice reminds me of Stevie Nicks! It's striking to me, at times I really like that interview with them.
You mentioned reading about the success they'd gained in the UK. I initially thought they were from the UK when I ran across them sometime last year while I was looking through the youtube favorite listings (capable under the previous youtube format) of a drummer/friend of mine in the UK. I was shocked to learn that they're American and I'd never heard of them before. I've yet to thank him for, indirectly/unknowingly, turning me on to their music.
Months ago I'd ran across this footage of First Aid Kit covering Patty Smith's "Dancing Barefoot" at the 2011 Polar Music Prize ceremony (a prestigious Swedish international music award) in honor of Patty Smith. Have you seen this? If not, watch the beautiful performance and see Patty's reaction to it. It's a great moment. The performance starts around the 59:30 mark.
