Pomplamoose are a quirky music duo consisting of Nataly Dawn and Jack Conte. Their genre could [[Neoclassical Punk Zydeco Rockabilly|probably be described best as]] "Indie [[Alternative Rock]] [[Jazz]] Pop Rock". They became popular on [[YouTube]] in late 2009 with some covers of pop songs (see [[Cover Album]], below), and also have lots of original music. They also appeared in a few tv commercials for Hyundai and Toyota.
 
They also have a distinctive style of music videos called "VideoSongs";
