She & Him @ Webster Hall: Sweet Darlings

Ever since I got my hands on M. Ward & Zooey Deschanel's alluring debut collaborative effort, Volume 1, I've been itching to catch the duo's live show. I failed miserably during SXSW (in spite of a half dozen attempts), but last night I was fortunate enough to witness their first-ever NYC gig. Battling some sort of apparent illness, Zooey D. was null on stage banter and instead opted for a series of handwritten signs thanking, greeting and charming the 1400-strong crowd. For the most part, M. Ward kept to himself as well while the pair tore though the vast majority of their LP alongside a handful of American classics. The 55-minute set ended with a beautiful encore which included M. Ward's Post-War staple, 'Magic Trick'. Photos & MP3 below. Watch She & Him's performance on Conan here.

She & Him Chat With The Spinner

M. Ward breaks down the thought process behind Volume 1: *"I don't produce other people's songs too much... but when I heard these songs, I knew I wanted to give it a shot. This She & Him project is just a great holiday. The recording of it was really simple and easy because the songs were great. Now, we play shows when it fits into our schedule, record when we have the time and it's really simple as that."*
