w. Lizz King & Blue Leader
In short, Videohippos is a two-person band from Baltimore’s Wham City community and performs music along with projected video-art. Videohippos have toured in both US and Canada with friends Dan Deacon, OCDJ, Ecstatic Sunshine, DDMMYYYY, Death Set, +more. Both VH and Tick Tick are psyched that they are stopping in Burlington on their way from Brooklyn up to Montreal.
Please come out and add to the party!
As their name suggests VIDEOHIPPOS perform live with both audio and video. Backed by a giant screen while performing, VIDEOHIPPOS project personal and pop culture video collages in synch with the music. Though captivating its hard to distract from the stick skills of drummer Kevin O’meara (drums, vocals, keys) and pop weavings of guitarist Jim Triplett (guitar, vocals, keys). Pummeling his 4-piece kit with precision and power, O’meara draws drooling mouths agape, as well as creating the centerpiece for the VIDEOHIPPOS ballads. With beats in place Triplett works in waves of guitar melodies either via 6-string electric or a small toy guitar. Sampled beats and tones fit snuggly between the two while both ‘Hippos share vocal duties.
w. Lizz King & ( Check out Booty queen!!)
She usually sings about boys, culture, and theology.
Her most recent ambitions are in agriculture, pop booty tunes, monogamy, and preparing for any and all possible beautiful/catastrophic natural or unnatural shifts in our collective conscious.

Hello All.
Featured below.
WIll be gracing the Burlington folk with a last minute booked performance between her Montreal show and her Bard performance.
This perfectly placed happening will take place on Friday April 25th in downtown Burlington.
To the best of my knowledge, though lineup is certainly subject to change, the local talent helping round out this night will be Cccome?, Jenny Montana w. Family(?) and Friends(?), and Fantastic Dungeon.
more information will be posted tomorrow, but certainly cancel any prior engagements and get ready to make an evening of it.
Heard from Greg Davis tonight that this show is a go!
