First Aid Kit Return to North American on Fall Tour, Play Toronto

BY Alex HudsonPublished May 1, 2012

Swedish indie folk sisters First Aid Kit only recently rolled through North American in support of their Conor Oberst-featuring album The Lion's Roar, but they've already announced plans to return. This fall, Johanna and Klara Söderberg will come back to this side of the Atlantic for more gigs.

The latest leg of touring launches in late September and lasts through much of October. Near to the beginning of the jaunt, the sisters will stop by Toronto's Danforth Music Hall on September 26.

In a post on their official website, the band wrote, "What can we say? This last North American tour was an absolutely extraordinary adventure. The love and support we've received from all of you who came to the shows has been overwhelming. In other words, we've had the time of our lives, so we decided we have to come back. Very soon."
