Aimee Mann and Ted Leo began collaborating, under the inconspicuous band
name the Both, in 2013. The pairing revealed two artists with more in common
than one might suspect. Mann, a generational singer-songwriter, was, in her
formative years, a punk, before coming up playing in the New Wave favorites ’Til
Tuesday, and eventually turning to the wry ballads for which she is revered. Leo, a
New Jersey-bred punk hero, is a biting lyricist attuned to the nuances of pop
songcraft. Both are fiercely independent artists, free to follow their muses where
they travel—even if that happens to be a holiday variety show that mixes jovial
Christmas classics with piquant original songs. A seasonal tradition for Mann
since 2006, the concert includes sketches and guests from both musical and
comedic realms. - New Yorker Magazine
