Let’s talk about Hippo Campus!
The people
Hippo Campus is an indie rock band from St. Paul, Minnesota. Its members met at the Saint Paul Conservatory for Performing Artists where they all attended high school. The band’s lineup includes Jake Luppen (vocals/guitar),Nathan Stocker (guitar/vocals), Zach Sutton (bass) and Whistler Allen (drums/vocals).
To be fair, I don’t know the band that well, due to the fact I only learned about them recently, so I’m not here to portray myself as an expert or anything like that… What I’m here for is to advice all of you to give them a listenandgo show them some support – if you feel like it – cause they deserve it, they’re a bunch of talented dudes with lovely tunes! ♥
The music
Their only full-length album – so far – is called Landmark and was released in 2017. I love this record so much, for mainly two reasons.
The artwork. It’s beautiful. Filled with small details. Almost cartoon-like. I don’t even know what it’s trying to say, but it’s cool, dontcha think? And the music. Every song is precious. Upbeat and uplifting, but also soft and chill, always make me feel happy.
In the interest of being “concise”I will finish by listing below my favourite songs by them, so you can check them out in case you’re interested:
- way it goes
- vines
- epitaph
- western kids
- vacation
- boyish
- buttercup
- Baseball
- Suicide Saturday

“Yeah? Well did ya get your dock in yet?”
“Oh yeah, picked up the pontoon, too.”
