Why do you make me stay here?

Have you ever felt like a part of a small group of really cool people? This past Sunday, the hubs and I went up to Chapel Hill, NC for Merge Fest. Merge is a record label based in NC who signed some really good indie bands and every five years, has a blow out to celebrate a few more years of signing killer bands. Although we wanted to attend all weekend (it runs Thursday through Sunday evening), we had life going on, so we decided on a last minute road trip for the final night.

I really wish I could have seen Spoon, but I was excited to know that we would get to see She & Him. If you haven't heard of this group, you may not be alone. She & Him is made up of M. Ward and Zoey Deschanel; a musician and an actor. I've added a link to another blog with an article about Zoey and a video so you can be graced with her voice. I will admit that like the writer of this article, I too have a girl crush on Zoey.

p.s. If you like Deathcab for Cutie, you might also know that Zoey and the lead singer are engaged. Enjoy!
