Win Tix To First Aid Kit At Webster Hall On March 28

As First Aid Kit, the sisterly folk duo of Johanna and Klara Söderberg have had a curious career, jumping from YouTube fame and a label signing thanks to a Fleet Foxes cover. They also have some pretty high profile fans, including Jack White and Fleet Foxes themselves. First Aid Kid have released their second album, The Lion's Roar, on iTunes (the official release date is January 24) and kick off their North American tour in New York on March 28 at Webster Hall — and yes, The Alternate Side is giving away tickets.  Check out their NPR "First Listen" after the jump too.

Jack White's Video Preview of Third Man Records 2011

Third Man Records label head Jack White is an ambitious advocate for the continued renaissance of vinyl records and just released a video previewing some of the developments and schemes (like the Third Man Monkey Band) that he hopes will drum up even more enthusiasm for upcoming releases by Wanda Jackson, Dungen, First Aid Kit and more. Video after the jump.
