Flight of the Conchords is a New Zealand comedy duo composed of Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement. Billing themselves as "Formerly New Zealand's fourth most popular guitar-based digi-bongo acapella-rap-funk-comedy folk duo", the group uses a combination of witty observation, characterisation and acoustic guitar music. The duo's comedy and music became the basis of a BBC radio series and then an American television series, which premiered in 2007, also called Flight of the Conchords.
Flight of the Conchords play at a party at Dave's place where Jemaine sees, and falls for, a beautiful girl named Sally. Jemaine's growing relationship leaves Bret feeling neglected and Murray helps the band film a Conchords music video.
