Jake Luppen, Nathan Stocker, Zach Sutton, Whistler Allen and DeCarlo Jackson are the forces behind Hippo Campus. The Twin Cities band has found significant success since their 2017 debut full-length, ‘Landmark.’ “Buttercup” and “Way It Goes” are featured on that first album, and both boast over 100 million streams on Spotify.
Their latest record, ‘Flood,’ came out Sept. 20. Their fourth album explores introspective themes of growing up and existentialism, all while maintaining Hippo Campus’ signature upbeat sound. The thirteen tracks on the album are just a few of the songs they've written over the last few years.
“We spent a lot of time on [Flood]; we were really serious this time. I mean, every record we approach, we kind of try to have a new sort of idea going in. And this one was just to be less focused on the computer side of things and just try to focus on the songwriting,” Allen said. “So we spent about three years writing over 120 songs... we had about ten albums worth of music but had to cut down to 13.”
The five-piece indie rock band returned to the Hinterland stage this past summer. IPR’s Cece Mitchell spoke with Hippo Campus about their new album and the trajectory of their success.
