Yesterday I posted that article about an analysis of Single ladies, the song of Beyonce and I posted here that video I found on YT of a 2 people band singing it.
I realized I liked that version so much that I listened it about 10 times I guess since yesterday so I decided to go on and explore a bit more, to find out who are these guys playing there.
So I went to their YouTube channel and I discovered a very interesting band, Pomplamoose, with a very interesting music. I say interesting because it is somehow a bit outside what I do. I kind of only know the “band” way of making music. You know, take a guy with a good voice, throw in a guitar, a bass, some drums and maybe a keyboard and hit play. Whatever.
These guys are what I could call a project. A very interesting project that I really enjoyed. I have already told you I liked their version of Single ladies more than the one of Beyonce, it’s fresher, makes me think of a great holiday morning without the obligation of doing anything, you know the high school or college holiday mornings. Yeah! That’s it!
Pomplamoose reminds me of college, I guess also because the way they are dressed and the way they act. However, I love the way they record their music and make clips out of it. Again, it’s fresh!
So here’s another song, September by Earth, wind and fire, a cool cover IMO.
By the way, you can find their music on iTunes and you can download their music from MySpace.
Now, enjoy and comment!

i thought the two looked familiar and it took me a minute - but have you seen the demo videos for the Electro Harmonix Voice Box? Check it out at http://www.ehx.com/products/voice-box - Jack and Nataly did the demo video on the front page… I want one of those btw

Ha! Now that you say indeed, I remember sending to my band mate a video with a demo of this box and indeed, it was them! Man, it’s a small world, I didn’t realize it also until now! Thank you for pointing me to that video!

I think she sounds good enough without it but the video with the Voice Box was cool.
I like the September video, that little furry guy sure can play a bass drum.
The voice box does a lot but I’m not sure it does enough to keep me from getting kicked of a stage with my non singing ability.

Yeah, the voice box it’s just an add in , but the guys are quite creative, I especially enjoy the way they make music with every little thing they can find around the house. I love it.
