Pamplemousse
Pamplemousse. Kids these days with their Twitters, Tumblers, secondLifes, Vimeos and YouTubes, there seems to be an endless number of time wasters or outlets depending on your point of view.

All the videos are of Nataly Dawn and Jack Conte in their home studio playing the songs for the camera with lots of quick cuts, split screens, and other tricks to that make the videos strangely compelling. Although, some border on goofy and after a while even a little bit annoying, but in the end it’s the music that grabs you and keeps you hitting the replay button. I should also mention that Nataly Dawn is easy on the eyes. She has this kind of innocent deer in the headlights look as she sings into the camera that has gotta keep people coming back to watch. With over 45,000 subscribers to their channel, they seem like they are a kind of cult YouTube phenomenon.
The duo have just put out EP of eight original songs that they’re calling what else, Videosongs. Dawn sings the songs with and ennuie that belies her years, over minimal and spacious backing.
Pamplemousse are kind of jazz and kind of pop and they’re not afraid to tackle songs from varying genres of music. Covers include Beyonce’s Single Ladies, the Chordettes‘ Mister Sandman, Edith Piaf’s La Vie en Rose, Earth Wind & Fire’s September and Nat King Cole’s Nature Boy. So head on over to Pamplemousse’s YouTube channel and waste invest some time listing and watching. Source
