Pomplamoose

The Californian husband-and-wife indie-pop duo known as Pomplamoose comprises former Stanford students and multi-instrumentalists Jack Conte (born on 12 July 1984 in San Francisco)—who is also the CEO of Patreon—and Nataly Dawn (born on 29 October 1986 in Sacramento). After forming in 2008 at the beginning of the YouTube-powered Internet video revolution, they made their name through sharing viral videos on Myspace and YouTube and covers of well-known songs, which they described as "videosongs." Their debut self-titled album arrived in 2009 with follow-up Tribute to Famous People—offering their take on a variety of classic songs including "La Vie en rose" by Edith Piaf and "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing” by Aerosmith—emerging in 2010. They went on to release albums, EPs, and singles at a consistent rate over subsequent years, taking in LPs such as Besides (2015), Hey It's Pomplamoose (2016) and Winter Wishes (2018). In 2020, they won the YouTube musician awards at the Shorty Awards and shared a lively mash-up of Bill Withers and Lizzo called “Lovely Day / Good As Hell." 2021 saw the release of the French-language album Impossible à Prononcer (2021); a covers collection featuring French songs like "Douce France" by Charles Trénet, "Les Copains d'abord" by Georges Brassens, "Vesoul" by Jacques Brel and "Laisse Béton" by Renaud. The "À Los Angeles" single followed in 2022.
