She++Him+ She & Him| In The Sun [New Single]

She & Him are back with there first single “In The Sun,” which is another catchy “feel good” pop melody from Mr. Ward and Mrs. Gibbard Deschanel. As much as I loathed Zooey in 500 Days Of Summer (personal reasons) it’s hard to not fancy her as an artist. “Volume 2” will see daylight in March on March 23rd.
