She & Him’s previously announced holiday album is approaching its October 24 release date, an event that Merge Records recently underlined by revealing the album art to A Very She & Him Christmas.
Shot by Autumn de Wilde, the album cover shows a very Christmas-y Zooey Deschanel and M. Ward apparently distracted by something very interesting just out of frame. Feel free to make your own memes.
The album is available for preorder via the Merge online store, an option that fittingly includes free She & Him wrapping paper. Other swag includes quaint knit mittens and matching hats. Some of the profits from that swag (and, you know, the album) will go to 826 National, David Eggers’ tutoring-centric non-profit.
The announcement of A Very She & Him Christmas back in August put to rest rumors that Ward would be leaving the group after announcing a solo effort back in May.
