I stumbled upon this little gem of a cover this morning while I was listening to music at work. A friend sent me the link and I thought I would pay it forward. The track is a fairly straightforward cover of the Fleet Foxes classic Tiger Mountain Peasant Song. If you like what the ladies have done with it (somehow I think they make it even more haunting than the original) make sure you check out their myspace page from some more great songs.

Or if you’d rather jump right into more music by First Aid Kit you can find this track on their album Drunken Trees (amazon) (itunes).

Hooray for covering Fleet Foxes!

People say some of our stuff sounds like Fleet Foxes, can’t see it myself but I’m not complaining…..a great band with a sound philosophy
