First Aid Kit and Dungen for Third Man Records' Blue Series releases

Tweet

Third Man Records' Blue Series will continue in January 2011, serving up a two-course menu of Swedish artistry, with Jack White once again taking on production duties.

Critically acclaimed Stockholm psyche-rock quartet Dungen are first up, releasing two new tracks - including the "psych-pop odyssey" 'Oga Nasa Mum' - on 11 January.

The following week (18 January), all-girl duo First Aid Kit will continue their steady ascent to the top table of folk-pop by releasing a cover of 'Universal Soldier', originally written by Canadian strummer Buffy Sainte-Marie but popularised by housewives' favourite Donovan in 1965. Check out their stark, understatedly moving interpretation below.
