That's what my friend Luke called She & Him, the duo of Zooey Deschanel and Matt Ward, who play an all-ages show at the Trocadero tonight. To which I say: Really? Worse than Hoobastank? Archers of Loaf? Live?
My interview with Deschanel and Ward for yesterday's Inquirer is here. Most of their charming folk-pop debut, Volume One, can be heard at their MySpace page.
Watch Deschanel get her head lopped off several times in the "Why Do You Let Me Stay Here?" video below. Underneath that, there's the duo performing "Change Is Hard" on Craig Ferguson and Deschanel's shower-singing scene from Elf, with Will Ferrell.
