CMC Sounds: A Very She & Him Christmas

My friend Melissa called me out today saying "It's not even Thanksgiving yet!".

But if you're like me: looking for gift ideas despise holiday shopping in person and working on an early gift list; then early November (...or rather
MOvember
) is just in time to start research.

Enter the newest offerings from musical duo
She & Him
and their holiday album A Very She & Him Christmas.

Zooey Deschanel (She) and M. Ward (Him) present all the Christmas standards on this 12 track album and do a fine job.

The album isn't fussy it focuses on simple vocals. I imagine this album playing dimly as friends arrive for Christmas lunch and presents.

I think my favorite of all the tracks is Christmas Wish which is the only track that features M. Ward's vocals rather than Zooey's.

A Very She & Him Christmas Track List:
The Christmas Waltz
