Jemaine Clement e Bret McKenzie são considerados o 4º duo folk de humor mais conhecido da Nova Zelândia. Eles têm uma aproximação à música idêntica a outros grandes marcos do humor comos os Spinal Tap, os Rutles, Weird Al Yankovic e marginalmente os Tenacious D de Jack Black. Depois de circunvagarem pelos palcos de «Stand Up comedy», finalmente o seu talento foi captado pela HBO onde conseguiram converter a sua música e atitude em textos e actuações bastante hilariantes.
