Flight of the Conchords clip

cover of The Essential HBO ReaderFlight of the Conchords is a folk/pop/comedy duo composed of Bret McKenzie of The Black Seeds and Figwit fame and Jemaine Clement of The Humourbeasts. Billing themselves as “New Zealand’s fourth most popular folk-parody duo”, the group depends upon a combination of witty banter and acoustic guitars to work the audience. Their new TV series on HBO revolves around a pair of transplanted New Zealanders, Jemaine and Bret, who are now living in NYC within a one-block “comfort zone” in the East Village. Bunking up in an apartment decorated with the finest furniture and artwork a garage sale can yield, the two break into song at a moment’s notice to let us know how the often-mundane experiences of city life make them feel.
