The trio will play songs from their joint album 'Songs for Nina and Johanna,' which was released last year. The performance will feature a handful of reworked First Aid Kit songs and some covers, though the exact number of reworked songs and which covers will be performed have not been specified. Specific dates for the spring 2026 tour and the exact setlist for the Nefertiti show remain unknown.
James Yorkston's early career saw him mostly playing in pubs in the small town of Kingsbarns, Fife, before landing his first record contract after turning 30. Johanna Söderberg, from Svedmyra, debuted with First Aid Kit as a teenager. The musicians have not disclosed whether other collaborators will join the tour beyond the core trio.
This reminds me of when I was young and played at the pub together with my friends. For me, it's just about having fun together. Then again, I have worked hard not to 'fuck up' Johanna's songs.
Yorkston doesn't seem the least bit worried but instead describes it as him and his songs getting to ride in a really luxurious car when Johanna Söderberg sings.
Hm, one of my uncles earned some money selling used cars. He had a brown metallic Rolls Royce that he picked us up from school with once. Just once. It had electric window lifts and was so quiet that you couldn't hear the sound from the road. That's the car.
