Ultraviolet Hippopotamus
UV Hippo's highly anticpated third album, Square Pegs Round Holes, is not only a collection of songs strong enough to stand on their own, but when pieced together, form a cohesive process that brings back that long-lost love for listening to an album beginning to end. Songs like Giants and The Scar highlight the bands ability to compose sing-along singles while songs such as Bob the Wondercat, The Marine and Medicine showcase the bands skill in orchestrating layers of musical bliss
"There are some wonderfully introspective and finely crafted songs that truly caught my ear and showed a wonderful depth of character and insightful song-writing sense" - Michael Travis, String Cheese Incident/EOTO
"The jamband keeps the groove moving with cool arrangements, suprising twists and great vocals. This is a jamband of joyous, proggy fun" - Fareed Haque, Garaj Mahal/Math Games
