She & Him and The Chapin Sisters at First Avenue
The rare case where the audience for an actor-fronted band is more interested in music than stargazing, She & Him features Zooey Deschanel, the indie crush object known for (500) Days Of Summer and her marriage to Death Cab For Cutie’s Ben Gibbard. Offering musical assistance as well as plenty of cred, M. Ward provides the "Him" half of the duo’s take on old-fashioned pop and country. Not surprisingly, She & Him’s debut, Volume One, contained familiar covers like The Miracles’ “You've Really Got A Hold On Me” and a Hawaiian-tropic version of The Beatles’ “I Should Have Known Better.” Volume Two adds songs from NRBQ and Skeeter Davis, and a collaboration with Tilly And The Wall.
