June 23 2016, 8:00 p.m. Flight of the Conchords. Flight of the Conchords is a New Zealand-based comedy band composed of Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement. The duo's comedy and music became the basis of a BBC radio series and then an American television series that aired for two seasons on HBO.. Event detailsFrom their first success in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival the BBC Light Entertainment Department commissioned the band to make a six part radio series in 2005. Over the next four years they made a TV pilot, a sitcom, released an EP (The Distant Future) and a full length album (self-titled LP), toured North America, made a sandwich, filmed a second season of an HBO sitcom, toured North America again, released a second album (I Told You I Was Freaky), and went back to New Zealand. The HBO sitcom became a hit. This, along with the praise for the subsequent album releases (on Sub Pop Records) and the duo's live show, was the comedic hat trick that catapulted Flight of the Conchords to international sensations...
