First Aid Kit mop up Swedish music awards

The Grammis Awards in Stockholm on Wednesday night turned out to be just what the doctor ordered for Swedish sister duo First Aid Kit, who took home a total of four awards.

Swedish newspapers were quick to call their mop-up of the awards a "given", dubbing the sisters queens of the night at the ceremony.

On stage at Stockholm's Circus arena, Johanna, 22, and Klara, 20, dedicated their awards to young women who wanted to "go their own way".

"And to young women who do not allow ideas about what they should look like to get in their way," the sisters said, according to Svenska Dagbladet (SvD) newspaper.
