The Name of That Band I Liked Last Year

July 21, 2015 11:28 AM

I'm trying to remember the name of a band that I got pointed to last year (2014) and really enjoyed but can't remember now. They are a duo, I remember them being Scandinavian, the music was indie pop and vaguely Bon Iver-ish. I remember that the music video for their hit single (such as it is) told the story of a couple at a beach house and ended with a bonfire on the beach. Can anyone hope me? I'd really like to listen to the album again.

First Aid Kit?

Response by poster: No, its not First Aid Kid, though that reminds me that I should mention that the singer is male.

Best answer: Pretty sure the track is Rhye's "Open" from their album Woman, though they aren't Scandinavian.

Response by poster: YES! Thank you, it was Rhye. They're not both Scandinavian, but Robin Hannibal is Danish, which is where I think I was getting that.
