About Songs for the Reaper

From the sweeping scenery of Western Michigan hails a rare creature known as Ultraviolet Hippopotamus. This radiating river cow has been known to blend strong songs and tight licks with improvisation to help find an original sound where their progressive aspirations meet their audience‘s thirst for funk. Some say it’s rock. Some say it’s more like jazz. Still others report electronica, reggae and even bluegrass emanating from the massive orifice of this unpredictable menace. One thing is for sure with multiple live recordings, two full length albums “Background Music” and the acclaimed recent release “Songs for the Reaper” (called …“a classic”… by Music Review and WYCE radio) this six headed beast has become a phenomenon in the Mid West music scene. With their thirst for exploration and desire to connect with the listener, Ultraviolet Hippopotamus leaves audiences shakin’ their booties and wanting more.

“This song is a song that fits right in with any of the classic rock songs your parents would listen to. The lyrics are great along with the entire flow of the song. Another great track by UV Hippo. Highly recommended”

“Ultraviolet Hippo is one of the best in the jam scene. These guys are destined to hit it big anytime. The song Two Pigs is probably what Pink Floyd would sound like if they had taken influence from the Grateful Dead. The band is known to cover Pink Floyd frequently and has even done entire Pink Floyd albums in the middle of a set. This being said they have no problem pulling off a unique sounding song with obvious nods to the psychedelic greats. This is a song that should be enjoyed by all fans of jam music or Pink Floyd.”
