I have nothing but tremendous amounts of respect for this person, Zooey Deschanel. Not only is she an amazing actress but she is also 50% of the band She & Him. Coincidentally the other half of the band is M.Ward who makes up the "Him" part.
Most of you will probably know her from the movie, "Elf" with Will Farrell. Zooey plays Jovie who works as an elf in santa's workshop at a major department store in New York City. Her character ends up falling in love with "Buddy", Will Farrell and they move up to the North Pole. Ooops, I just ruined the movie for you..
Zooeys band has a folk-style to it and they have released one album in their career so far. What I can say about Zooey is that unlike most other actress turned musicians or musicians turned actors, she genuinely has the talent to have both careers be successful. I'm not even sure which of her paths I prefer. I definitely like the genuine aspect of her band and how they don't seem to sound like anyone else but, I can still group them into a category if they were to tour with other bands.
There first album, "Volume One" has been out for quite a while and boasts a lot of catchy hits. Head over to their myspace so you can get a small sample of what to expect from this small but extraordinary duo! http://www.myspace.com/sheandhim
