Their version of Tom Jones' "It's Not Unusual" is played weekly on WMMM 105.5fm in Madison, WI. The Gomers have played with Les Paul, Steve Miller, Clyde Stubblefield (James Brown's "Funky Drummer") Ben Sidran and many many more.

The Gomers play tons of weddings - no other band can allow you to completely program your musical sets, and the Gomeroke option is a total blast.
