Hippo Campus return with a JIMES-directed clip for “South,” taken from the digital EP of the same name, and the physical double-EP The Halocline EPs. The band is playing a handful more dates in 2015, for a full list check the tour section.
We’re just jealous we weren’t there during the filming of this glorious video for “Suicide Saturday,” from Hippo Campus’ debut EP Bashful Creatures (get it on iTunes here). Premiered earlier today over on Stereogum.
Well, that was fast…
After laying waste to Austin, TX last week, the Minneapolis boys of Hippo Campus made their late night television debut on Conan last night. Watch them perform “Suicide Saturday” here. You’ll be able to pick up physical copies of their Bashful Creatures EP on May 5th, or download it on iTunes now.
Of course, that wasn’t the only bit of exciting news today. The band was also announced on the lineup for this year’s Lollapalooza, and they’re rolling into SF for the first stop on their tour with Mowgli’s tonight.
Oh hey, Hippo Campus, welcome to the party.
We’re thrilled to announce the latest addition to the Grand Jury roster: Minneapolis’ Hippo Campus. If you like singing along to shit, you will like Hippo Campus – earworm central over here.
