Today Hippo Campus share Demos II, a collection of new songs written and recorded over the summer of 2017 and the winter of 2018. The new material came to life during the sessions around the band's most recent album Bambi, and includes such fan favourites and live staples as "No Poms," "Chapstick," and "Joy." The release follows that of Demos I -- eight early versions of Bambi songs -- which took fans into the world of Hippo Campus’ creative process and demonstrated how the band crafted their latest album. Demos II is available to buy or stream here.
After epic performances at The Governor’s Ball, Bonnaroo, and Firefly, the band recently headed out on tour with The Heart and The Heart, and will be playing at Hinterland and VooDoo Festival this summer. All tour dates are listed below.
