Island in the Sun |

Hip hip for this cover of Island in the Sun, because I really did feel transported to an island beach somewhere with an umbrella in my fancy fruity drink. There were so many great moments throughout this song! Swatty’s high ditty on the keys made the whole song sound playful. Moira’s and Sara’s voices are so smooth and blend incredibly well, keeping everything mellow and relaxed. And Nick Campbell on the bass!?! He rarely needs introduction, but Jack’s countdown led to such a great drum and bass section by Nick and Ben that I was hooked by the time Brian’s guitar section came in. Such a fun cover, it’ll be on everyone’s summer music playlists!

It's cold and gray outside today. But it was fun to lie on the beach for a few with Moira and Sara.

[@glennelfmann3143]

Sara and Moira sound soooo good together. Hope their are more collaborations in the works.

[@SaraNiemietz]

Thank you!!!! Love singing with Moira.

Really enjoying all the Sara Niemietz!

[@SaraNiemietz]

Grateful you listen. Thanks!

[@glennlasher8753]

@@SaraNiemietz I discovered Pomplamoose because of you. I'd been following Scary Pockets, and heard you sing Bad Habits, which led me to look for more of your performances, which led me here. Thanks for being awesome!

[@gevangasteren]

Why do these voices evoke the beach so much, I was wondering. And I think I found it: together they sound a lot like waves coming in!

[@UncleMark13]

Combat boots and an evening gown, The style is almost as smooth as the sound, Big thumbs up to you all!

[@bostonseeker]

What a combo, right? Almost punkish, but more cute.

[@glennburch1081]

More collaboration needed from these two....... that was FANTASTIC!

[@bostonseeker]

Wow, it was ... and evocative too. You could hear the breeze and waves.

[@drkellymac]

Sara makes everything better - but I am glad to be introduced to Moira - their voices are great together.

[@user1810x]

I am listning this again and I love this so much. Moira and Sara voice go well together.

[@piyushan_abeynayake]

All around great chemistry and energy. Hope to see more performances from this team-up.

[@corporeidad]

Awesome!!!!

[@juanitokalo6502]

This music, these voices, this soothing feeling and Sara's look and smile. That's how my summer starts.

[@toddt6542]

Simply perfection! Perfect arrangement...perfect instrumentation...perfect vocals...perfect today, tomorrow, next year and 100 years from now...simply perfection!

[@ChrisH1272]

This is great! I really hope there are more videos from this session.

[@camphope9344]

What a beautiful cover. It’s like taking the original song and pushing it through an underwater fantasy dream of happiness

[@thelookanchannel2560]

It has a sort of nostalgic vibrato added with the synth thats just so goooood

[@timcat61]

So wonderful!

[@mariacarmentoyasbailac.1167]

Excelente, como siempre!!!!

[@PeculiarAxolotl]

Lovely harmonies

[@settcampos2787]

Se tem Sara e Moira, eu curto sem ouvir... A dupla delas é incrivel, surreal de bom.

Oh that damn guitar line. Thanks for it. i could buy an entire album of this kind of sound.

[@ChrisTuttle]

My mood has been rescued. Elevated. Celebrated. Thank you

[@SaraNiemietz]

Happy for you and your mood.

[@chriscocks3670]

Wow!!!!!!! Such a cool version

[@IainBrewSydney]

An all time favourite just got better :)

[@rafaelrabelo9092]

Your very existence seems destined to fill our hearts with joy. It's a delightful conundrum, as we can't quite decide what brings us greater pleasure: your masterful performance or the irresistible charm of the song itself.

[@DuncanJimmy]

Damn that's a sensual song. Totally playing that on date night.

[@Pottery4Life]

A great arrangement. Thank you for sharing.

[@SaraNiemietz]

Happy you listened, Mark!

[@zacha7221]

You're all such awesome musicians creating a massive soundscape, as usual. Your production always impressed me even in the beginning when I found your cover of My Favorite Things...I am now realizing it has been 15 years since I discovered Pomplamoose D: I was in middle school! I love that you have not changed much, only improved on your sound. Channeling their voices individually to L/R was almost necessary with their range difference, but such a great idea nonetheless. This is the same vibe that I have loved since you started posting but so much more refined. Reinventing songs in your own style is such a talent and while I have not really contributed I believe you guys deserve it all, keep it up! P.s I love your originals just as much

[@martinneumann7783]

Adorable easy tempo version. Good job, guys!

[@ktykty4002]

Exquisita combinación 😊😊😊

[@TheHumanRanger]

OMG my stress is melting away :)

[@paulEmotionalaudio]

impressed by the video production

[@erikadash687]

BEAUTIFUL 😇😚😉

[@davorjovanovic88]

I think this is the sexiest breathing in the music industry so far. Love how Little M smiles and tilts her head in the demo video that you posted on Instagram when she catches the third while breathing in and out. They enjoyed it so much that they couldn't look at each other during the recording; they immediately started smiling at each other, having naughty thoughts. I'm so HIP on to this cover now...

[@DavidMyrickPlus]

Digging that Tape Echo, juicy!

This morning : opening the window, taking a deep breath of fresh air, looking at the nature around and the blue sunny sky, listening to the birds in the trees ... and then comes up Island in the Sun remix 💗Moira, Sara, Nick, Jack and Ben you all just got it right 🥰 Thank you so much from a little lost place in France ... Just dream of the day @Pomplamoose will be in tour in France so I can sing with you all like I do right now ... (love your remix of Brassens songs by the way ...) 🤗🤗🤗

City in the Sun. That has the feel of a wonderful, breezy day in the city. A little too groovy for an island tune, but just perfect for the city.
