She & Him X 2

She & Him, the grammatically impaired almost-too-cute pop duo of songwriter-actress Zooey Deschanel and guitarist-producer Matt Ward, are doing two shows in town on Friday. The first is a WXPN Free at Noon at the World Cafe Live, a gratis doubleheader with Delta Spirit. Sorry to say, that's sold-out. Deschanel and Ward are also playing the Great Plaza at Penn's Landing tonight, however, and tickets for that are still available, here. She & Him's new Volume Two is perhaps not quite as fresh and charming as 2008's Volume One, and they're no longer everybody's favorite new coed duo of the year. (That would be Sleigh Bells, who are at Bamboo on Sunday.) But S & H's retro perky stylings should sound perfectly swell on a breezy night along the Delaware.
