Up coming events!
Hush Pup at Loplops on April 2 at 9:00pm
All the way from Victoria, Hush Pup makes their debut at Loplops on a cross Canada tour.
Hush Pup spring forth as a fully developed and actualized dream-pop band, with a sound that's cohesive and instantly recognizable. The swooning sustain of Torrie Seager's subtle guitar ornamentation and Ida Maidstone's vocals — at once whispered and crooned — wash away the mundane, eliciting a rainbow of colour in a monochromatic world. Hush Pup take their time, leisurely navigating through beautiful vocal textures and glittering sonic material. Like an exuberant take on Beach House, they exude something warm, flush and refreshingly sunny.
