Hippo Campus was formed in 2013 by Jake Luppen (lead vocals & guitar), Nathan Stocker (lead guitar & vocals), Zach Sutton (bass & keys) and Whistler Allen (drums & vocals) after the four-piece met at the St. Paul Conservatory for Performing Artists.
The crowd was wedged up against the front barricade of South Side Ballroom, cheering as Gus Dapperton and his band left the stage. They’d been the perfect opener for Hippo Campus—punchy instrumentals, smooth melodies and harmonies, and plenty of dancing.
Earlier this year, Hippo Campus released their latest album, LP3 – taking the record for a spin on a tour of the same name. Along the way, the Minnesota outfit played their first-ever show in Ann Arbor on October 3rd. With a packed crowd on hand at the Michigan Theater, the band played new cuts and old favorites.
