A Very She & Him Christmas is a collection of holiday tunes from Zooey Deschanel (She) & M. Ward (Him). Inspired by seminal holiday albums by the likes of The Carpenters, Vince Guaraldi, The Beach Boys, Elvis Presley and more, She & Him have set out to create an intimate holiday recording of Christmas classics that helps bring new emotions out of old songs. Recorded in Los Angeles and NYC at various points in 2011, A Very She & Him Christmas sees the duo stepping back slightly from the layered, lush aesthetic of their critically acclaimed second album, Volume Two. On A Very She & Him Christmas, Deschanel and Ward let the songs speak for themselves, oftentimes recording them with just acoustic guitar and vocals. Consistent in everything are the elements that have made She & Him one of the most loved bands of the last few years—Deschanel’s soulful vocal delivery and Ward’s impressive guitar work, both sounding as timeless as ever.

Fans who order A Very She & Him Christmas on CD or red vinyl LP in the Merge store have the option of ordering the album with a knitted She & Him holiday hat and/or mittens. Physical orders will include exclusive She & Him wrapping paper, while supplies last.

The track listing for A Very She & Him Christmas is:

2. Christmas Day
3. Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

She & Him released Volume Two to widespread acclaim this spring. The album, which has been one of the most lauded of 2010, is filled with infectious choruses and sunny harmonies that were written by Zooey and produced by M.Ward. The band’s performances at Coachella, Bonnaroo and most recently at the prestigious Hollywood Bowl, have been some of the summer’s most incredible performances, and their lovely tunes will be absolutely dazzling when they hit the West Coast this fall.

The band recently released the video for second single “Thieves.” Directed by Norwood Cheek, the video is a brilliant homage to black and white silent films of the 20’s, reflecting all of the subtle charm and melancholy of the song itself. A limited edition 7-inch for “Thieves,” backed by the vinyl-only bonus track “I Knew It Would Happen This Way,” will be released on August 31. Pre-order your “Thieves” b/w “I Knew It Would Happen This Way” now in the Merge store.

M. Ward: I knew it could be a long-lasting thing after first hearing Zooey’s demos because she had much more than one record’s worth of material, and the quality of the songs was so great.

Zooey Deschanel: And I have so much respect for Matt. As long as he will work with me, I will work with him.

MW: This is where we fist bump. [Zooey and Matt bump fists.] There’s at least one fist bump every interview.

From Myspace’s Artist on Artist series: Brian Wilson & Zooey Deschanel chat with each other for a spell:

I’m resisting the urge to go super-fanboy on this one, but it’s pretty well-known that The Beach Boys are my favorite band of all-time (and That Lucky Old Sun is a damn good record, if we need more contemporary commentary).  I also, as it happens, enjoy the record Volume One by She & Him quite a bit!  Ergo, this interview is something that I, and those who feel similarly, would enjoy watching.
