Hippo Campus Announce National Tour, Reveal Live 'VEVO DSCVR Session'

Indie pop-rock darlings Hippo Campus have announced a headlining North American tour, kicking off April 26 in Fargo, ND and wrapping up with an appearance at Summerfest alongside Alabama Shakes, Weezer and many more on July 2. In addition to their prescient lyrics and buoyant melodies, Hippo Campus have quickly earned a reputation for their rock-solid live shows, impressively building toward enormous crests before breaking apart into glistening four-part harmonies.

Following a triumphant stint at SXSW last year they appared on CONAN performing "Suicide Saturday" and later played "Dollar Bill" and "Little Grace" on CBS This Morning. Now fans have more chances to experience the foursome's captivating live performance. Watch the band's official video for their latest single "South" and their new live video for the earworm of a track as part of the VEVO DSCVR series HERE. See full list of dates below or click HERE.

Just a few years out of high school, Hippo Campus is a triple threat quartet, with irresistible melodies, visionary lyrics and impeccable musicianship. The young band perfectly capture that mixture of longing, aimlessness, and eternal hope that consumes all young people transitioning from adolescence to adulthood on their debut EP, Bashful Creatures, and its follow-up South.

Since their days attending the St. Paul Conservatory for Performing Artists where they met, they have kept their foot on the accelerator. 2015 was a bustling year for Hippo Campus, who released 2 EP's, made their late night television debut and maintained a tireless touring schedule opening for big-name acts like Walk the Moon, Real Estate and My Morning Jacket and playing for a crowd of tens of thousands at Lollapalooza. And yet their journey has only just begun.
