Hippo Campus started off as a group of high schoolers at the Saint Paul Conservatory for Performing Artists back in 2013 and have since built a grassroots fanbase leading to three critically acclaimed albums and multiple world tours and festival appearances. In 2017, NPR named them as one of their favorite new artists.
They’ve recently released their latest EP Wasteland which touches on themes of friendship, hardship, heartbreak, and, ultimately, perseverance.
Hippo Campus headlined Bayfront Festival Park with fellow Twin Cities artists Miloe and papa mbye on Saturday, June 24, 2023.
