**Happy Birthday Special! Nov 3rd is not only special because it's the night of The Undercover Hippy's home town Bristol show... it's also Billy Rowan's birthday! Come and celebrate with Billy and the gang and help make it a night to remember!**

After a string of sell out shows on their explosive album release tour this spring, the boys are back for an even bigger, longer, and more jam packed run of shows this autumn. Expect to be amazed, amused, and uplifted in equal measure as The Undercover Hippy and co. deliver their uniquely delicious audio offerings to your eardrums.

Special guest support from Binbags (front man from Binbag Wisdom)

The Undercover Hippy:

Described by Tom Robinson (BBC6Music) as being “like the love-child of Steel Pulse, Kate Tempest and The Sleaford Mods”, The Undercover Hippy’s music brings together powerful messages, infectious reggae rhythms, and a lyrical delivery that will get even the most hardened hip-hop head nodding in approval.

Reviews for the album release tour:

Live Review - “I don’t think there’s anything quite like The Undercover Hippy... It’s truly unique, fun, and powerful, with darkly satirical lyrics in equal amounts set to a reggae beat that’s simply infectious… this has been one of the THE most enjoyable shows I’ve been to in years” - https://www.leftlion.co.uk/read/2023/april/gig-review-the-undercover-hippy-at-the-bodega

What they say about The Undercover Hippy (the nice things):

“Politically charged reggae that sticks two fingers up to the powers that be …”

FRESH ON THE NET

“A powerful masterpiece that weaves together humour and shrewd political commentary to create a catchy, fun, and renegade protest album that could not be more relevant …”

ON THE BEAT MAGAZINE

“The combination of catchy tunes, rhythmic vocal style and socially aware, often amusing lyrics is a recipe that is difficult to nail without seeming preachy or dull, but this succeeds where many fail …” E GIGS
