Matt Edwards and Sven Olsen first met in the fall of 1993 in Morris, MN
where they attended the University of Minnesota. Aside from singing in the
Concert Choir there, they also collaborated sporadically over the years,
singing the odd classical duet, crafting adventurous Beatles medleys and
even crafting an original song, "Three Sticks of Dynamite," an ode to folk
hero John Henry. After graduation, they went their separate ways, hooking
up again in the early 21st century in the Twin Cities area to play the
occasional graduation party and neighborhood picnic. After years of talking
about it, the two decided to record a Christmas CD, Christmas With The
Homers. They chose the name The Homers in honor of their stay-at-home-mom
wives. All proceeds from the Christmas CD will be donated to the Edwards
and Olsen Families.

Matt is. Having played thousands of ping pong matches, Sven has yet to beat
Matt, although he's come agonizingly close.
Yes. Sven and Matt portrayed brothers in the ironically titled "The Best
Christmas Pageant Ever" on the Proscenium stage at the University of
Minnesota-Morris.
Matt hates Java Stout beer, preferring all others.
Although it baffles some, the distinguished Sven is actually younger than
the immature Matt.
Sven uses words like "distinguished" when he could just as well use words
like "bald." Matt finds such wordplay "immature." Sven ignores his
childish comments.
