Their music offers a refreshing twist on classic Americana, appealing to fans across various genres, 

making them a must-see whenever they roll through your town.

Inspired by real-life experiences with a touch of imaginative flair, Tyler McGinnis and Sarah Brunner embarked on an ambitious and dynamic songwriting journey in the fall of 2021. Their onstage chemistry and whimsical personalities shine bright, captivating audiences with every performance. With over 3 years as a duo, The Hipocrats have emerged as a formidable presence in the Pacific Northwest and across the country.

Since their inception, The Hipocrats have played over 350 shows, including 11 major tours, leaving a mark on audiences nationwide. Notably, their "Road to Joy" tour was a journey consisting of 90 shows in 26 states over 5 months. This unforgettable trek took them to iconic venues like the Hotel Cafe in LosAngeles and The Saxon Pub in Austin, culminating with a memorable performance at The Tractor Tavern in Seattle, 

where they opened for Grammy- nominated artist Will Hoge.

Their most recent single "Savannah" (March 2025) is a love story for the city of Savannah Georgia, and came swiftly after the release of their Debut Album "Friend Ship Joyride" (August 2024). Produced by Grammy-award winning artist Chance McCoy and released under Robust Records, "Friend Ship Joyride" captures the essence of years spent in friendship, as well as the journey of growing older, learning invaluable lessons, and navigating through life's twists and turns. 

"There are some voices that are just meant to go together, 

be it Simon and Garfunkel, Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova, Joy Williams and John Paul White of the Civil Wars or Sarah Brunner andTyler McGinnis of The Hipocrats. When the magic is found, it must be shared, and sustained as longas possible. The Hipocrats' EP, "Road to Joy" is only the beginning, as these harmonies and 

arrangements have many tales to tell, and they will tell them majestically. Stay Tuned."

-Charlie Denison, Americana Highways

"You can hear an Americana supergroup within The Hipocrats. 

Sarah Brunner’s voice soars like Brandi Carlile. Tyler McGinnis shines with the introspective emotional grit of 

Mary Gauthier. What makes The Hipocrats unique is the way they pass the baton between them in the 

intermingling of their harmonic energy. The masculine and feminine twine together, like a yin and yang of 

American folk. It’s an incredibly fitting - yet somehow unexpected-next-era of Seattle’s Americana scene,

a city built on ideals of inclusion and tearing down gender barriers."

- Dan Ray of Dan's Tunes
