Pomplamoose (/ˈpɒmpləˌmuːs/[3]) is an American musical husband-and-wife duo composed of multi-instrumentalist Jack Conte and singer-songwriter and bassist Nataly Dawn. Formed in 2008,[4] the duo sold about 100,000 songs online in 2009.[5]
They are known for their viral YouTube videos and covers of popular songs[6][7] As of November 2022, they had more than 1.53 million subscribers and over 430 million views on their YouTube channel.[8] Their first song, "Hail Mary", was featured on YouTube's front page.[9]
Their videos mostly take the form of "VideoSongs", a medium Conte defines with two rules:[10]

- If you hear it, at some point you see it. (No hidden sounds)
