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.
Their first EP was released that same year, but was taken down when 2015 EPs Bashful Creatures and South was dropped.
The band's first LP, landmark was released in early 2017, and was followed by warm glow (EP).

[Refrain] Amaj7 All the parts that you're fucking with like a tourniquet Amaj7Emaj7 I can light the whole thing up
[Verse 2] Emaj7 You can say I'm a stranger now Emaj7 With some falling down we can get it straight Emaj7 Hazy days in suburbia Emaj7 At your father's house we sub-medicate Amaj7 Intertwined in my urgency Amaj7 It's so new to me Amaj7Emaj7 I can light the whole thing up
[Refrain] Amaj7 Nothing else been impressing me but I gotta see Amaj7Emaj7 I can light the whole thing up
