She & Him — Volume One

Jared Leto... Juliette Lewis... Zooey Deschanel? Guilty pleasure alert: This may just be the first enjoyable disc from a movie star since William Shatner's 1968 release The Transformed Man. The key here, one would assume, is what collaborator M. Ward has done with Deschanel's saved-up bedroom recordings. Songs vary slightly in style from straight-...

The festive season is upon us. Wait, is it? Either way, the adorkable duo She & Him performed their throwback version of "The Christmas Waltz" on The Tonight Show last evening. They're basically this generation's Karen and Richard Carpenter.If you're not guzzling back alcoholic eggnog yet, perhaps M. Ward's delicate nylon string plucks will...

Video Of The Day: She & Him's "Don't Look Back"

This She & Him video has a bit of a '50s throwback vibe and a futuristic feeling to it. In it, Zooey Deschanel imagines what music, fashion and recording will be like in the future. She clones herself, making three backup singers, and M. Ward has some kind of blow-up guitar. Weird and strangely creepy."Don't Look Back" appears on last year's...

Bonnaroo 2010 Day 2: Flaming Lips' Dark Side Of The Moon Is Must-See

I'm typing the majority of this review back at my campsite — as Michael Franti & Spearhead play the last few songs of their set. There's a pocket of two-and-a-half hours between Franti and The Flaming Lips' midnight performance in which the only band playing is Kings Of Leon. And while I mean no disrespect to the Kings, after you've seen them...

She & Him's Otherwise Perfect Set Marred By (Flash Bulbs Of) Tension

The minute Zooey Deschanel, M. Ward and their five-piece band walked out onto the stage on Wednesday night, the entire sold-out crowd at Toronto's hellish Sound Academy melted. They were so goddamn cute, it was frightening. Deschanel, in her signature country-belle summer dress, and Ward in his plaid, made for an adorable duo. They were...

She & Him — Volume Two

I want to hug this album — very tightly — with every part of me. It's the aural equivalent of a best friend.

She & Him — "In The Sun"

Zooey Deschanel doesn't seem like someone who would appear in any of the High School Musical films or on Glee. So it's kind of hilarious that She & Him's new video for Volume Two's "In The Sun" draws on that film and television show. Nicely done, regardless of what you think of either franchise. Volume Two is out March 23.

Zooey Deschanel Is A Groupie

Starring in films or television series about groupies isn't anything for Zooey Deschanel. We're not saying that as some kind of insult — she's done it before. Deschanel, who previously had a part in Cameron Crowe's Almost Famous — which is about, among other things, groupies — is set to play a groupie on I'm With The Band: Confessions Of A...

Zooey Deschanel Vs. Katy Perry

Zooey Deschanel is tired of people thinking she's Katy Perry. The two ladies look alike, and it probably doesn't help that Deschanel — who began her career as an actress and entered the music business as one half of She & Him last year — is a singer, like Perry. "The only similarity that we have is that we look a little bit alike,...
