Hippo Campus’ debut album ‘Landmark’ has just been released into the world - an album that ties upbeat, infectious melodies with complexity and depth. About the album, band member Jake Luppen says: "There are two halves to the record—the first half represents our first stage of writing, where we're showing off our ironic side and criticizing the culture of social media, and the youth culture that we're a huge part of now. It's a world we've been forced to plug into, whether we want to or not, and we talk about our qualms with that world.”
They’ve previously played at SXSW, Lollapalooza, Reading and Leeds, as well as supported the likes of My Morning Jacket, Modest Mouse, and Walk The Moon.
They also recently performed ‘Way It Goes’ live on Conan - watch the performance below:
