guitar pop melodies meet heart melting lyricism as Hippo Campus unveil their new ‘South’ EP. Singer Jake Luppen’s ever so slightly husky vocals are a stunning contrast to the group’s simple, light filled melodies and add rough to the edges of the gorgeously glistening record. Floating seemlessly from track to track, ‘South’ is elegant by nature, finding strength in its passion as opposed to trying to gild itself with cluttered instrumentation. A perfectly composed collection of raw emotion and effortlessless musicality, ‘South’ prooves big things are ahead for the fourpiece.

‘South’ EP is out now
