The Hypochondriacs LIVE Album Recording (Night 1)
“It’s about evolution. These songs have evolved. The band has evolved. Things are a lot different now, from when we started. We want to document that,” explained band leader Josh Bravener. “I mean, first off, we’re not even a country band anymore.”
Since forming in 2015, The Hypochondriacs have released two albums of material ranging from country, 50s doo-wop, soul, Americana, and alternative music, and their travels have landed them on festival stages throughout North America, including SXSW (Austin), Breakout West (Calgary), and of course appearances at The Harvest Music Festival in their beloved hometown of Fredericton. While both records have been met with critical applause, live shows are a true thrill ride, converting many fans.
The live album is an offering to a fevered fanbase, waiting patiently for an anticipated third album. It is an attempt to capture the magic of these six tremendously accomplished musicians working together for a greater good, transforming fan favourites, and leaving it all on the stage.
“We simply want to capture the strength and energy of our live performances. The band has a lot to do with this. We want to highlight each of their unique influences,” added Bravener.
The Hypochondriacs invite you to be a part of their LIVE ALBUM RECORDING

Fredericton’s favourite live band, The Hypochondriacs, have set aside two nights in January for a live recording and they are inviting friends and fans to be a part of it.
January 11 and 12, 2024, ‘The Hypos’ will set up in the Charlotte Street Arts Centre to do what they do best: perform for packed and appreciative rooms. However, making this cabaret-style event unique will be the added excitement of being part of a live recording.
