First Aid Kit have announced their most ambitious UK tour to date in September, calling at Glasgow, Belfast, Manchester, Bristol and rounded out off with an appearance at the hallowed environs of the Royal Albert Hall on 24 September. This follows the sold out show taking place this Thursday 15 May at the Islington Assembly Hall. The band also have main stage UK festival dates at Latitude and Green Man Festivals.
Added to this they have revealed the spooked and sumptuous video for ‘My Silver Lining’ directed by Elliott Sellers and shot at the Paramour Mansion in Los Angeles (home to silent screen star parties back in the 1930’s). Watch it below:
First Aid Kit had this to say of the experience “We wanted to create an intriguing and mysterious world where everything is just slightly off and the mansion slowly comes to life. The idea of things in life changing, even scaring you, but still having to carrying on despite it all is a theme in the song which we wanted to convey in the video. This was the first time working with Elliot Sellers and he really impressed us with his creative ideas and passionate dedication. We are very pleased with the way it turned out!”
