That was wonderful. Better on the whole, I'd say, than the clips I've seen from Montreal.

Great to have this video! I love First Aid Kit's music, and their new album (released in early January) looks like being the first great album of 2018. I met Klara from First Aid Kit at their Royal Albert Hall concert two years ago, and she told me that she was seriously into Leonard's work.

Here's "Fireworks" from the forthcoming album: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4YJ28AoCb8
