Up until very recently, Blvck Hippie was considered one of Memphis music’s greatest hidden gems, but with increasing national attention and a string of high-profile festival appearances, it seems that the band has finally broken through. Self-described as a “sad boy indie rock band,” Blvck Hippie fearlessly combines post-punk, emo, and even hip-hop into an exciting and emotionally resonant blend. Led by the talented Josh Shaw, the band aims to be a voice for young African Americans who struggle with fitting in or being different. Their 2021 debut album, If You Feel Alone at Parties, has earned wide-spread praise for both its eclectic musicality and its emotional vulnerability and suggests that Blvck Hippie are poised to be Memphis’s “next big thing.”
