" Palomino " is the fifth album by the Swedish group First Aid Kit. Written and recorded in their home country, Sweden, " Palomino " was created during this dark period of global pandemic, but turns out to be First Aid Kit's most pop album to date. Composed of 11 tracks, it was produced by Daniel Bengtson. "This is the first album we are recording in Sweden since our first album " The Big Black & The Blue" 12 years ago! We worked with Swedish producer Daniel Bengtson in his charming studio Rymden in Stockholm. It was a super fun experience. We really took our time to record, we didn't want to rush. The songs were mainly written during the pandemic. During this complicated time, music was synonymous with escape, a breath of fresh air in the face of what was happening in the world. We wanted this album to be more optimistic and joyful than our previous album, " Ruins ", which was a breakup album. This new project is probably our most pop album to date. We found inspiration everywhere - from bands like Fleetwood Mac, Carole King, Tom Petty, T Rex, Elton John, but also Angel Olsen, Whitney, and Big Thief.'
