Established in 2018 Filthy Hippies is a South African Alternative trio with a strong undercurrent of Shoegaze influences.
The band quickly established themselves as solid contenders in the explosive, burgeoning South African psych scene and list supporting Post-punk band Dangerfield’s album launch, and 2019’s Endless Daze Festival as current highlights.
