Jack Conte, Pomplamoose/Patreon - XOXO Festival (2013)

January 26 2014, 6:56pm

Multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and filmmaker Jack Conte may be best known as one-half of Pomplamoose, the indie-pop duo that racked up over 80 million views for their "VideoSongs" on YouTube — videos that show every step of the recording process without lip-syncing or dubs. As a solo artist, Conte's released five albums that fuse electronic, dance and pop. His most recent EP is out now on Patreon, the new funding platform he co-founded for independent artists like him, who release material online frequently for free.

Recorded in September 2013 at XOXO, an arts and technology festival in Portland, Oregon celebrating independent artists using the Internet to make a living doing what they love. For more, visit http://xoxofest.com.
