Hipper Than Thou is an ill fated collection of personalities with no commercial aspirations whatsoever. Our music is less bound by style than it is by talent. All songs are limited to the 9 chords our guitarist knows. Stylistically we range from Folk, to Jazz Folk, to Electric Folk, with a little Folk Rock.Have you performed in front of an audience?We don't play live due to a lack of demand.
Your musical influences
Steve Taylor, Mark Heard, T-Bone Burnette, Jeff Johnson, Daniel Amos, Tonio K, Jonathan Rundman, Tom Waits, Bare Naked Laidies, Bob Dylan.What equipment do you use?
Bose 10 track, Strat, Ashbory Bass, Tenor Banjo, Pawn Shop Trombone, Variax, Chapman Stick.Anything else?
In olden days a glimps of stocking was looked on as something shocking, now heaven knows . . .Songwriting and performance.

"95 Theses" is one of the most hilarious things I've heard in a long time. Thank you so much for recording that. Man, if I could pass those theses around, I'd be happy as a... umm... clown?
I'm gonna' keep on listening. "Hit Me"'s got a great chorus.Lovin' hit me where you want me to hurt. Check out Callic.Hey there - my friend KEvin send me over here and i'm glad he did. 95 pieces was a great start and i kept listening. Will add one of yours to my station.. it happens to be the number #100 song added :-)Hipper Than Thou, you guys rock- I have alot of love and respect for you all not only b/c of your brutal honesty on your front page but your music is really good! We can relate to the lack of demand for local performances LOL! The recording quality isnt the best but I dig the tracks. I'll see if I cant convince my fellow members of Ebest Gazine to cover some of them. I think Drive All Night needs some handclaps though.All comments (6)

Hipper Than Thou is the best thing I've found in months or maybe even weeks. Your singer sounds eerily like someone I know at my church. I dig the intentionally bad sound quatlity and the biting sarcasm. And of course 95 theses is already classic. Keep it up.
